I was going to write a post on this soon but didn't take the time yet... it's like why I turned to Christ in the first place.
I think the answer is...
There is good, love, joy... somewhere, do you seek that and gain from it? I got some today, just enjoying some diverse spring flowers on my walk. Talking to the family and working through challenges raising our teen. Even though I have pain and I'm sick, I can find something positive, a reason to live. The children lying on deaths bed in the hospital wish for what I have, why not end their suffering? There is something to giving people time to discover themselves, to live their lives to the fullest... albeit... in the knowledge of good and evil as the bible says, which I see as true. We are getting a huge dose of that, and it looks sometimes... like better to wipe it all out than go on suffering.
We aren't made to be isolated, but to be connected. The connection to humanity may cause pain, warping us. We know by looking inside ourselves. But it's been far worse than this at times in history, and yet people when faced with certain death, find purpose in life.
If there is no hope, nothing but failure and fear, then one doesn't see a point to existence and may even want to erase the whole lot of em. That's the mentality of our basic mass shooter. Not good. I 've been there emotionally, I saw it in myself and got out of that place to a better place.
It's been tried... wiping it all out... at least in concept in the Bible. God "flooded the earth". Let a few live... the mess started all over again.
Thankfully it isn't my decision to make and nor yours, god. We let time takes it's course. I give my time to helping others along their path, to find hope, value in life, find purpose. Sometimes it's very small. I get more joy sometimes watching ants work than much else. But sometimes, I feel like I made a difference in someones life, and that's powerful. It's life, being lived at so many levels in this world.
As much evidence there is of God I've found, is that God... that connection to what is greater good... lies within us. And when we find that, we want to live and give to others, understanding that this world has lots of suffering and we will be removed of it at some point.
The Bible says, gonna wipe it all out eventually (bunch of old crazy desert wandering men). Science says... gonna wipe it all out and suck it into a "black hole" and squish it into some kind of tiny blob of energy, and then blow it to bits across the universe... to start over. Pretty much guaranteed... lets hope we don't speed up the process, although some probably feel like that is better. Choose life, a better life and existence, cause you aren't staying here. The only safety, is in Christ that I can find. I suggest going there now so you have forever.
All our problems are fundamentally... emotional. That has been solved. So God, do what you will...
As Jesus of Nazareth addressed in the parable of sowing the seed... some will "hear". Gotta listen with your heart to hear what he was saying. Luke 8:5.

If you were my almighty God then you know that I'm one of your soldiers and that I will do whatever you say when the time does come no matter if I'm dead or alive I know you will bring me back to this earth to end all evil for once and for all it was meant for all of us to be one to help to be there to give to shelter to feed to care for you love each other as one I just hope all the above is true and that my good deeds away my sins because you know I
Am a sinner by choice because I need to experience to understand so no matter what your going to do it with or with out me but I do choose to fight with you and not against you
I love your question no matter how it was meant its not far from the truth of happening someday and I truly think sooner than later and you to know this and in your own wAy was reminding all that it its meant for sounds crazy but in my own crazy way I believe it. Like I have always said there is something special about gag and it's people who have remained you for such a. Of time and in our own way knew each other but we don't and watching new people coming in and changing in every direction of life searching to become better there's a reason for it I'm still not sure what it is but it has something to do with the spiritual and maybe what you're saying I know it sounds crazy but I believe it I believe what you said
Well, if you're anything like other gods, all we have to do is feed your ego enough.
Apparently just fellating a god endlessly is all they really ask for, other than sometimes giving humans dumb rules to obey. Does that sound agreeable?
If that fails, my next idea would be to point out that if you destroy the world, supposing its the only planet with life, then you'd have to go back to doing whatever god (s) were doing before we arrived. (Floating around endlessly in a lifeless universe for an eternity. Sounds boring.)
If you are all powerful and all knowing, you must know what is best. Therefore, I will not attempt to convince you not to destroy the world because I know, if you do destrroy the world, that is doing what should be done.

By all means, please do so
But before you destroy this world, just let me have a packet of Doritos, a tub of ice cream and a huge cup of coke. Also, I’d like a free Spotify premium subscription. After this, you can gladly destroy this world and I shall leave this world peacefully.Oh Agape the Almighty. You have shown everyone that you are above all else. You have slain gods. A deed we will talk and write about forever, if you spare this planet. You have already proven your power to know no bounds. Do not destroy this planet, for the destruction of this world would pale in comparison to what you have already achieved.
"Now allow me to show you the pleasures of this world."
Now lets shoot some cans, clay pots, and propane tanks and then tell me if you still want to destroy this world or if you're having too much goddamn fun to care anymore!

Try and appeal to you from a side of u liking anyone that was human before u accended if not tho not sure what I could say be divine right and conquest u have the right to di as u wish lol no argument I can think of seems plausible to a being that is not only a god but managed to defeat all others
cause you can play with it like an ant farm instead, wouldn't that be fun?
Ok, go get some candy and a big gulp at a 7-11 and I'll meet you at the next comic-con in San Diego, let me know what kind of car your parents drive so I can find you when they drop you off, then we can discuss you not destroying the world. 😉
Do it, there's nothing worth keeping, except for maybe cats, look at this fuzy ball of fluff it'll purr if you do this, and this is a guinea pig they weak when they recognize you, and this is a bunny...
If you're all knowing, then tell us, did Trump lose the election, or was it stolen? Either way, it's fine with me if you destroy the world. It needs a reboot anyway.
More like, "how can I help?" Lol
If you are all powerful and all knowing and made your decision, then a limited being with limited knowledge can't possibly convince you otherwise. It is impossible.
Nope you go right ahead, it will save us the job, we're half way through it anyway.
What's the point of being a goddess is everything is dead?
Meh, don't flatter yourself or your father will beat you with a shoe, again.
Well. You've shown us that you can take away life, I would love it if you could also grant life and fix Earth.
Nah we fuck up too much, feel free to clean this mess and start over.
I won’t kill you if you don’t kill me ! I’m an Omnipotent God, all powerful. You are a goddess I am a God.
I have zero good arguments to convince you not to do that.
Nah, fam. Destroy away.
True about being a goddess. I don't believe in gods, not should be all the really evil people
"Wouldn't that be boring? Let's make this fun instead."
