    I'm not so sure God would really want mortals trembling at His feet and such.

    Then again, that's why I'm talking to you while being constantly impaled on Satan's tail and ripped to shreds by the Demons of Nizhr.

      Oh. C'mon. Big deal. Stuff like that happens.

      and gave me an ugly mother
      Beauty is not only skin deep.

      and made me have 3 abortions. If God really did exist, why wouldn't he simply fix this kind of stuff for me?
      Uh, those abortions were your choice (or your guardians). And by the way, no offense, but you would have never had any abortions had you not been sexually reckless. Your sorrow is the price for your sins.

        I understand. I know what you are saying that you would not do something anyone told you to do no matter how powerfull they were if it meant you had to kill someone who had every right to live. I would rather die than do such a thing my self.

          condoms would've helped you out there...

          I like George Carlin's thoughts on god:

          'Take a look at all the **** that's going on- war, disease, famine, and the 'ice capades'. These are not things that belong on the resume of a supreme being. This is the kind of stuff you'd expect from an office temp with a bad attitide!'

          You have to remember, god is:

          'an invisible man, living in the sky, who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of 10 things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these 10 things he will send you to a place of fire and anguish and torture where you will suffer and burn and scream and cry for ever and ever until the end of time.... But he loves you...'

          So I think I would treat him like anyone else I meet, wouldn't ask him for anything because of the whole "devine plan" ****.
          'What's the point of being God if every run down shmuck with a $2 prayer book can come along and **** up your plan?'

            When I meet God I'm going to deny everything and hope for the best.
            Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

            Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

              I disagree. God does not send anyone to hell, at least that is my view of the matter. If you read the Bible one bit our first parents decided that they wanted to be on their own and not listen to God, so God has allowed mankind to go on his own for awile, to see if they could do a better job then Himself. If God truely hated us he could turely make all of mankind suffer ten times over what suffering their is today.

                Good point, Jackwww.

                By the way, the cause of evil is Satan's fault as well as man's fault as told in Genesis; not God's.

                  I don't get it that Mr. Nice Guy. If God is Supreme, why does God not destroy Satan? You know... cancel his existence? Either God has no power over Satan, or he allows him to exist? Christians never answer that one. Anyone?

                          Sava, my serious point was, if who you are dealing with is undoubtedly "God" - his morals are by definition right, and you damn well do what you have to to please him. Otherwise, what exactly is your point? What will come of your noble stand, regardless of what size support you gain?

                          "God" would be God, and God would be right. I honestly don't see any room for discussion, otherwise

                              I just posted Carlin's interpritation based on the Catholic Faith.

                              Also, I think that god does send people to hell. If he didn't who would? That's the whole point of the judgement. God decides if you're worthy of going to heaven.
                              (I could discuss this more, but I haven't read the bible. I've been meaning to read the bible, the q'ran and the tora because theology is interesting to me, but I haven't got around to it.)

                                Same reason why he did not destory the first human pair when they rebelled. Yes God has allowed Satan to exist all this time to prove that Satan is just a big fat liar.
