If you are talking about some superior being, what some might call god, I don't see him "watching after" a whole lot of people. If so he's doing a pretty shitty job of having their back or being much of a friend to humanity. How many children died today, from violence, starvation and disease on this planet? Innocent children, who never had much of a chance to live, and certainly did no harm to anyone or the world.
No, if you believe in god, then you must believe that your god is a cruel, horrible thing or just totally uncaring for humanity.
What an attitude... God has his reasons. Besides there are also terrible things like rich adults like you who are more unhappy than the people you were describing who live in war torn countries and third world countries... I guess even God cant rightfully fix stupid.
I thought you were talking about things like natural disasters and crap and not things that certain individuals do to each other. Everyone has choices in life and it's not God's fault that people decide to hurt other people.
P.S. Remember that I am Agnostic and not a Christian, I didn't mean to come off as a religious person, I'm just saying that if the world was flawless there would be no such thing as happiness.
Is it normal to be afraid of some sort of higher being?

I'm not at all unhappy. I just can't believe in the unjust and horrifically evil thing god would have to be to exist and allow such misery on earth.

Without misery happiness wouldn't exist.

Horseshit.
Some mother kills her 2 month old child; how much happiness could make up for that?

If there was a good and loving god, don't you think it should protect the innocents?
