A God that is all knowing & all powerful in some arbitrary sense that allows Him to do anything at any time, a God that can easily smite evil doers, would necessarily be responsible for allowing evil to exist & to go uncorrected. There would be good reason to hate such a being.
But if God is reality, or the underlying laws that bring reality into existence, then those who deny God are responsible for evil. And salvation would only be possible through knowledge & acceptance of God.
Both concepts of God could accurately be described as all knowing, all powerful, & infinite, but IMO only one of them makes any sense.
