"Hell was created for the Devil and his demons (fallen angels), God doesn't want one person to go there, that is why He provided a way to escape it, but if people don't accept His means of salvation, then they have decided they just don't believe or they can escape on their own, then they will have to face the reality of hell."
I'm sorry about the religious post, but this is exactly what I mean. If this true, it's as much God's choice as it is some poor confused sinner. God creates fallible creatures with free will; puts them in Paradise where he has to know, as God, that they'll fail; grits His teeth and slays people left and right for the transgressions of other people; then changes his covenant and sends his son to take on their sins. Meanwhile, he doesn't do anything to correct the misconceptions the vast majority of humanity have about the Divine. Then He shuts up other than in a book written by men.
And if his creatures don't wend their way through all that and make the right choice, he tortures them for the rest of eternity. What's the point of God damning the creatures he brought into existence? Who know? But it would be His choice.
"Even God can't save them who can't love Him. Suzanna, don't you cry."
