Yes, clearly it was necessary to subject Job to unimaginable physical and spiritual torment (and kill Job's children) just to make a point. About true spirituality. (No matter that it compromises any reasonable definition of justice or basic morality.)
Anyways, the point was apparently this: when you're God, you get to do ANYTHING YOU WANT. No, seriously, ANYTHING.

Guess so. But sometimes isn't 'anything' a means to an end?

Why do you take such special interest in me??

Just showing you the biases of your own world view. You don't have to thank me.

Don't worry I won't....Don't you understand that you are not gonna change my views??

Yeah, I do know that. And I also know that the more you attempt to defend your views, the more clearly you illustrate the closed-minded thinking required to hold those views. And this may have a positive impact to those who may be reading and are struggling with this or other issues. The more we can show how closed-minded thinking warps someone's ability to reason, the better the world.
