The main issue with arguments like these is that there are some baked in assumptions about the nature of God: That God does love all humans, that God is powerful enough to prevent all bad things from happening to people, and that God's love would necessarily compel them to prevent bad things from happening to people. And that God would be able to, and choose to, reveal themselves as often as we might expect. If you strip away those assumptions, then what you're left with is a bunch of non sequitur arguments. The premises leave open the possibility that there is a God who isn't that powerful or doesn't care about humans that much. |
