There would be a lot less than 6½ billion people on the planet for sure.

Let's be honest:

If you were god, you'd have omnipotence, omniscience, and the mind to reconcile all of that data. Not sure where that would take me, but from my current perspective, that means smiting those who have it coming.

Why ...Why not just make the planet bigger and unlimited food sources...Or on the other hand why even bother...I'm sure hearing 2 billion people wineing at you and wanting Divine intervention in there lives would become a real nuisance....Just erase the planet from existence to get rid of the headaches...

That brings up an interesting thought:

Put people on different, secluded, inhabitable planets based on their *current* ideologies.. and see how things work out. It'd be like a race to extinction.

I voted yes, however, that said, I'm religious, but I believe God is involved in almost no direct deaths. He allows deaths, but I dont' think He causes many. Most deaths are caused either by natural processes (i.e. disease, etc.) or by human choice (i.e. murder, etc.).

umm not exactly...if hell exists then that means suffering and pain would never end. How can you learn from something and build your character from something that never ends? And to say that people's souls are being "torn down in heaven" is being childish. If you have already spent an entire lifetime on earth building your soul then heaven is obviously the finished product: a pure soul in peace.

I can't tell if that is a personal attack, a bump for god, or nonsense. Do explain.

milk carton obviously doesnt understand that god created us because he loves us ... god is pure love and thus he created us because of that love... the "destruction caused by the human race" that milk carton talks about is a result of our free will which god gave us again because he loves us.
so, i asked milk carton if he would have enough love to create us, b/c it appears that he wouldnt.

You just contradicted your own statement by acknowledging the fact that you are aware of our "self destruction".
