Why God?
58
-Hello God, just some thoughts I would like to question and add.
-Why must some be born with disease while others are born healthy?
-Some are born poor while others are born wealthy.
-Is this divine intervention or mans invention?
-Why do some live for good while others only have bad intentions?
-Can you hear me now God, have my questions grabbed your attention?
-Why is will free when some will to destroy and kill?
-The innocents free will is taken by the one that killed, you still think free will is popular to give?
-If all can be with intervention of the divine,
-Where is intervention when the innocents die?
-Are we simply here to destruct ourselves?
-Are we waking, living, breathing in an unknown hell?
-Where are the answers to the unknowns of the world?
-Do you have any answers for an innocent raped little girl?
-Did you give man the bible to walk in your ways?
-We both know you didn't intervene, a bible would be insane.
-So where is life's purpose in the universe of unknowns?
-Are we to evolve, destruct, or figure it out through individual own?

Hello tantrum, I was truly hoping you would read and give your thought on this one! Thank You sir! Much Appreciated, Glad you liked it. Thank You for reading.
Great work once again marine! Questions that I believe we all have had at one time or another after watching the news. Keep up the great work!
Hello fantasy, I'm glad you liked. Thank You for reading and commenting.
I liked your words they are like they come from many peoples hearts on this subject. My son is blind so i do understand, why do the inocense suffer? But i must say i believe it comes from a greater need to learn about love in the real sense. The misconsception of the word god ( good)it help to believe in.
VERY - VERY nice ~ I have found a wonderful kindredspirit in you...BLESSINGS=)
Hello Amanda, Thank You for reading and commenting. To add to your idea, maybe it took him losing his sight for your to gain yours? Glad you have found your love and purpose in life. Thank You, best wishes to you and your son.
Thank You for reading and commenting Lisa. I'm glad you enjoyed, much appreciated.
Nicely done, marine. Hats off to you.
Again, another volley of big questions, but this time I can say that God did that as a kind of equilibrium and balance. In other words, he created the good and bad, white and black...etc bcz, as a proverb says, if you are a manager and I am a manager then who will be staff?
These are the questions Man has being doing probably since the beginning of developing self-awareness and developing a religious feeling or simply a feeling of strangeness.
Accepting explanations/answers to those can be harder than let them open. In one way or the other we are in the middle of it :).
Hello wordscribe, Thank You for reading/commenting. Glad you enjoyed.
Hello Shame, Thank You for reading and commenting. Much appreciated.
Shame, if a creator/creators or God created life/death, love/hate for balance, why do we always seem unbalanced?
"if you are a manager and I am a manager then who will be staff?"
I really liked this question. Very strong question. I think the goal is to learn self management through individualalism rather than looking to others for management. I think religion is a contradiction to individualism.
Hello rcisophie, Thank You for reading and commenting.
"Accepting explanations/answers to those can be harder than let them open"
This is the only part I disagree with. If we compare religious, set belief to individuals with an open belief to admit what they do not know, I think far more is learned. I think religion and a set belief counters free thought. I think "accepting" anything without individual truth is blind faith. Thank You
Reminds me of my late brother a lot. He became agnostic during his battles as a Screaming Eagle in Vietnam. Later in life he discovered the damage done him from Agent Orange along with his abuse of alcohol and drugs. He was returning to his early faith when he died. I hope now he has found the answers to these same questions. I miss him terribly. thanks Marine and I have started my heart hub for you.
Hello Ralwus, Happy to hear that your brother found peace before dying. I think peace will be found with me when my son is born. Sorry for your loss. I look forward to your hub and the thoughts of someone that has lived with 2 hearts! Rare indeed. Thank You for reading and commenting.
Marine, we are perfectly balanced otherwise, why haven't we extincted long time ago? Why have we endured all the catastrophes, disasters, volcanos, wars...etc Big questions aren't they?
Shamel.
Hello Shamel, Yep, so many questions, so little answers. Why do you think we have survived to this point?
While reading your hub I remembered a story about the man who went to a barber. While doing the haircut, the barber and the gentleman had a conversation on different things. When they came up on the topic on suffering and injustice, barber told that there is no God. If there were God why this injustice and suffering prevail. The gentleman did not say any word. As soon as he got out of the Barber shop he noticed a man with a long hair and beard. Gentle man returned to the barber shop and told the barber that there is no barber exists in this city. Look that man, if barber exists in this city, why this man here without cutting or shaving. Barber said, "I am very much existing, How can I cut his hair or do the shaving unless he come to me!" Gentile man replied that the God is existing. Unless you come to Him, how can he Heal you? How can He give justice to you unless you come to Him? God is there to give you Justice and ready to heal your sick. Don't lose heart, Trust in God.
Hello jacob, Thank You for reading and commenting.
-Thank You for your effort in an inspiring comment, but I must say that I disagree with some of your statements.
-We know that a supernatural power does not intervene in our world to the sick.
If someone has cancer, do you tell them to rely on cancer medicine/treatment or prayer? I think it is irrational to say prayer will work over medicine.
You and I both know that we were "created" by our mother and father, however, this doesn't prove that there was intervention outside of our mother and father. I think there is a "great" reason for not having divine intervention on a physical level. Let's say your mom and dad is your divine intervention throughout your life.
They would make your decisions and control your entire life, not just childhood if they "kept" intervening. This would not be free will.
I have faith in good/reason purpose for my life. These are all the facts I have.
Do these statements not prove Divine Intervention false? It would contradict free will.

Nice thoughts. Nice thinking. Nice questions. Nice hub. I know and believe that God. The Bible says He is the Omnipotent, Omnipresent, The I am that I am, He is Jehovah. Thanks for the hub.
Hello Philipo, Thank You for the compliments. I also thank you for reading and commenting. Much apprciated.

Good hub, I was surprised that you didn't have many dissents to your hub.
I have no answers, just questions.
The God of the Old Testament sought out people, like Noah, Moses and Abraham and was communicating directly with them. Why is the God of the New Testament mysterious and not talking, much less directly with the people?
Since the New Testament, many new religions were spawned and many more variations on those religions as well. They appear to be driven by humans that didn't like the existing religion. This is the opposite of divine intervention and it works against the concept of one God. Is there some small print in the Bible that authorizes people to make up their own religion?
There are TV Ministries by the 100s and they all preach from the bible, but they alone purport to be the key to salvation.
Why doesn't the same bible mean the same thing to everyone that reads it?
What is the value of the bible, if everyone can read into it whatever they want it to mean? Shouldn't the message be crystal clear without having to have someone tell you what it means?
Without having a common meaning, how does one know how to correctly interpret the Bible(s)?
As for the suggestion by some, that you must go to God for intervention, how does a fetus or baby or mentally deficient person do that?
Hello Opinion Duck, Thank You for reading, always appreciated. Excellent thoughts you added as always.
-On your first question, I think this is because religion knew it had to make alterations in belief to maintain followers?
"Why doesn't the same bible mean the same thing to everyone that reads it?"
I think this is because some are dependent on a religion or belief. I think when most read, they are looking to follow. When I read, I was looking for truth. My truth was different from a follower truth.
-Second part, maybe this is part of the chain of evolution and individualization. Maybe the next is to separate into different religions, then finally separate into individualization?
"What is the value of the bible, if everyone can read into it whatever they want it to mean? Shouldn't the message be crystal clear without having to have someone tell you what it means?"
I think they left it open to "interpretation" for a good reason. I think the reason is so it was harder to prove wrong. However, I think any true non dependent individual mind will see the truth rather than what they wish to believe.
"As for the suggestion by some, that you must go to God for intervention, how does a fetus or baby or mentally deficient person do that?"
I think the religious answer would be, If they can't go to God, God goes to them. However, this contradicts people having to seek God.
I really enjoyed this!
Hello Veronica, Thank You for reading and commenting, much appreciated. I'm glad you enjoyed reading. Thank You.

Your answers are as good as any out there.

Hello Opinion Duck, Thank You, Very much appreciated. I enjoy discussing thoughts with you anytime. Great thinking and great questions/comments you pose as well. You are great all around. Thanks.
well when it come to the isssue of God, it's hard to explain. i come from a prayerful country which is also among the poorest and the most corrupt. however from time to time we see things that can not be scientifically proved, like pp being cured of terrible deeses like HIV/AIDS. pp being miraculously saved from death.
there are however still questions like if God knows the beginning and the end then why do we even bother to be righeous. he already knows if we are going to hell or not. why does he take the good people and leave the bad ones?
i guess we should just all try to live our lives as it comes, one step at a time and be good whever we find ourself. let the divine intervention come if it will
Thank You for reading and commenting Fiksy.
Great comments, hard to respond to with any answer. Many things unexplained without faith that everything is for a reasonable and logical purpose. I think faith is the strongest belief for this reason. Great thoughts, thanks.
