| You, in a nutshell, are ignorant about what |

you are talking about.
Understand that ignorance is different from stupidity. You simply don't know the full context of what you are trying to state authoritatively.
In all of the above examples, everyone had a choice and knew the consequences of both sides of the decision.
In Job's case, yes he was tested but he also received much more than he lost when everything was said and done. In the end, Satan's proposition that Job only trusted God because of his material comforts was proven false, and Satan's lies were exposed that much more.
Millions of people (including myself) have benefited from Job's trials and the strength of his character.
God IS Good. He is the very definition of good, because without Him "good" can't even exist.
Best,
