> Many find it hard to reconcile the idea of a loving God with a God who would torture sinners for eternity.

And they are right. God doesn't torture sinners for eternity. He gives all intelligent creatures (humans and spirits) the choice between living with him or not. If one decides to live (for eternity) without God, God obliges and removes himself and all his grace. Turns out happiness is a consequence of grace. No grace - no happiness. Enter damnation.

God isn't torturing anyone. It's just a simple binary choice on the part of humans if they want God - all of God - or not - meaning no God at all. Nobody is being a dickhead, and nobody is certainly being self-contradictory.
