God is not there to protect us. If he did what would be the point of our existence? Better to not have created us in the first place if all we are is puppets on a celestial string.

No, I believe God gave us the most precious gifts that any father can give his children. Freedom and trust. Trust that we'll use our freedom for good instead of evil. Kind of like the first time your father handed you the keys to his car, we are at the wheel of our own destiny so to speak. Yeah we might get hurt but that imo is far better than a completely sheltered life with no free will.
