My point is, I do not like a God who rewards the bad while punishing the good and virtuous for simply not believing. According to such system, murders will enjoy eternal life, while charitable, good-hearted, and loving people will suffer Hell. Nothing could EVER make sense from that.

hmmm... I sort of understand where you're coming from. Before hand, let me clarify that I in no way mean to offend anyone, so sorry if I do.

What I want to know is, how would someone expect to be rewarded by something or someone he/she does not believe in? I mean... yes, God rewards the bad, but that is because they believe in him and truly want to repent. How can something that is "not there" reward you?

Dunno if this will make sense, but here it goes. (Again, before hand, "you" is generalizing, I'm not targeting anyone in specific).
Lets say you have a job. You do everything well, you are loved by everyone and everyone loves you. You have a boss, but you do not believe he/she is there because you have never seen or heard him/her. If you don't even believe he/she exists, why would you expect a paycheck?
And lets say that there is someone who does everything wrong and is hated by everyone. Then, there is one day that that person realizes he/she has been doing wrong and believes that there is a boss they can go to to ask for a second chance. Yes, they have not seen or heard him/her either, but they have seen what the boss does. They go and ask for a second chance, truly believing that the boss will give them the chance. They believe the boss is there, so they recieve the second chance.

Hmmm.... that sort of made sense to me... hope it made sense to you guys out there.
