I'm just gonna point out that (Christian) theology is a field that's been around for over a thousand years and has been studied extremely extensively. Old medieval universities were originally primarily dedicated to the study of theology (and it's still comes first on the order of precedence). Theologians have addressed literally every single one of your concerns. You might not personally agree with their arguments, but I feel that they would be convincing to someone who already accepts some basic tenets (e.g. God exists, God is smarter than you, just because you personally can't think of a good reason doesn't mean God doesn't have a good reason).
What this means is that there is only one possible outcome of events. If there are more than one possible outcome and god knows every possible one, then he isn't really all knowing. For him to actually be all knowing, he has to know exactly what's gonna happen. This means we have no free will. Why would he construct a world in which to test humanity, and then there is no free will? It's completely pointless.
See: John Calvin and predestination.
An interesting explanation of infinity (if the universe is infinite) that I came across recently is that anything that can happen, will happen.
Even mathematically, that's not true. See: almost surely. As a quick example, it's possible to flip a fair coin an infinite number of times and for it to come up heads every time.
The obvious things that are wrong in holy texts
Keep in mind, that even early Christian scholars regarded a lot of that stuff as allegorical. St Augustine was born in 354, and was already writing stuff like this.
God is almighty. Evil exists. Therefore he is the source of it.
What I'm looking for is to be able to respect the stand point of people who believe, and understand how they can accept this world view with all the evidence against it presented to them when there is literally no evidence that speaks for them
Like I said, some theologian somewhere has probably addressed nearly every objection you might have had. There are many internally-consistent sects of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. I'm hoping that this at least gives some insight of how people reconcile some of those "paradoxes" that you mentioned.
