there is a difference between a circumstantial/temporal truth and an absolute one. the ignorance may be in getting the two confused.
whether a god exists or not is like putting the cart before the horse. there are certain aspects of existence that are undeniable. the universe is predatorial and amoral. you see it in all aspects of nature.
still, even though that is the case, there is a higher understanding or awareness on an conceptual/abstract level that it's wrong or terrible.
the question is which is true or more accurately, even though we exist in a situation that we cannot change, does this mean that these laws are all there is? is it the ultimate or absolute truth? is this design the only possibility? more than likely not.
i think people who justify evil because 'it's the way it is' instead of listening to that voice of sanity are dishonest. i think it's similar to a test. your character is tested by choices, not by what you have to or can't or cannot do. it's like that university experiment where people tortured others ignoring their sense of right and wrong. that's a poor excuse.
