Of course you would still love your kid, no matter how disrespectful/evil he/she grows up to be you'd give them chance after chance after chance to redeem themselves. And that's exactly what god does.

Every day you wake up you're offered the oppertunity to go out and read the bible, or go to church. And you're offered the oppertunity to repent. If you ignore this oppertunity your whole life, and you die and go to hell.. you can never EVER say that he didn't give you a chance. All you could say is that you didn't chose to accept it, and you got what was coming to you.

God offers a hand, but you chose to ignore it or reject it.

And yes, god created satan and hell. There's MANY examples in the bible of him being angered by people who disrespect him and immorality. But that's the thing, he's god... you aren't. He has the right to make such decisions if you agree or disagree with it.
