[Islam] - God cannot be considered worthy of worship if he created billions despite knowing they'd burn in hell for eternity

I have read the Quran.

I can see that it can be a compelling document to a certain type of superstitious mind, but to me it comes across as the work of a creative but ultimately charlatan cult-leader who spoke through a character that he created. You will find these kinds of people everywhere, all throughout history.

I don't grudge you the comfort you get from your reading of the Quran, or any other scripture for that matter. But also realize that putting pre-medieval cult-leaders on a pedestal has its consequences that manifest in the real world. In pursuit of a heaven that they promised if you'd only validate their megalomania, there is a real danger that we will make our world a hell.
