And let me follow that up with something even more specific:
If you believe that your God could commit such an act of revenge, it actually says nothing about your God. What is shows us is your *personal* idea of what's right and wrong.
By saying "Irving had it coming to him", and putting up the front that it was God's will that he be punished, you're simply hiding your own vengeful nature behind God's name. That's the real truth behind all of this.
