You said it's not the problem of evil, then proceed to basically say "if God is real, why do these bad things happen?" If God stopped these instances, the goalposts will be moved to as to why evil happens at all.

Saying that discussing heaven is "skipping the important part" then defining the "important part" as two months of suffering compared with an eternity of bliss doesn't compute either.

In all of these instances, it's humans disobeying God and you're blaming God when the consequences are faced. To quote Samuel, the writer of judges:

In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.
