God didnt create misery... God created life. And with life he created free will... Up until Adam and Eve ate a fruit from the forbidden tree... there was no pain... no misery... But after they proved they were no longer loyal to him he released them from their "shell".
God is omniscient (all-knowing) and omnipotent (all-powerful). When he created life, he knew EXACTLY what would happen. He knew that Adam and Eve (who didn't actually exist -.-) would eat out of forbidden tree, yet he went ahead anyway.

So, if I don't accept Jesus as my savior, I have "earned" eternity in burning agony?

He is omniscient. He should already know.

Yes. You have your neat little arguments that I'm sure you're very proud of. However, you haven't really done anything other than try to contradict one of my arguments. Tell me: What evidence is there to support the existence of an all-powerful, eternally loving God?
