Proof that if there is a god, it is not benevolant

Lightning is beautiful and dangerous.

Thunder is just loud and useless.

Lightning comes before thunder.

If the universe were really created by a benevolant, omniscient deity, the thunder would come first, to so we would have a warning of the approaching lightning. That way, we could look out the window to see the cool lightning and/or protect ourselves from the danger. As it stands, the lightning is over in, literally, a flash, and then there's some useless noise that only serves to frighten dogs. A truly considerate deity would have made the thunder come first.
