The moral argument that the context of things is adapted to the soul of man and shows the workmanship of a benevolent God is quite unsatisfactory. However the matter be turned, in the real world, the responsibility for sin and evil falls on God. If to relieve him of the authorship of evil we accept something like the mythology of Persia and make Satan responsible for it, then the oneness of God disappears and we reinstate the dualism between God and Satan. Again, if the soul is part of God, God must feel the pain of the soul also, even as when one member of the body suffers,the whole body suffers with it. If follows that the suffering of God are much greater than those of the individual souls and it is better for us to remain self-enclosed individuals with our limited sufferings than rise to the level of God and take upon ourselves the burden of the whole world.
