      I would not play the psychotic game of begging to give any power satisfaction watching me do it. if it comes to this, then kill me, I am beter off.

      Most people, while young, DO beg their mother or father for things like...letting their friends sleep over, or borrowing the car.




      Is He not the father of the dying, starving children of the world as well?...because if this is the way that He takes care of His children's needs, then He is a total dead-beat!

          You are blaming man for what your God SHOULD be blamed for.

          If all humans are God's creation, then He is ulimately responsible for each person's behavior.  If He does nothing to stop the greedy from taking from the starving, then that is an act of EXTREME incompetence.

          Is your God a weakling or just a foolish dummy?

          If he is omnipotent, at the least, more potent than men, he should be able to cure the "human greed". Or is it that god made all American humans(including the corporates) selfless, humble and generous, and in the process made the African humans selfish and greedy? And even if the Africans are selfish and greedy, what prevent him from making them less so or at Least give a little rain?
          Or to what extent you will go in justifing that there is an evil impotent psychopath, who claim to be the power behind everything, but as impotent as you are in curing the maladies in this world, not even have the guts to take responsibility for his own creations?

            You miss the big picture. God is able to do all these things and abundantly more. Man started out at the top, a nice garden, peace, fellowship with God, but chose to ignore those things and wanted something else. God gave them something else.
            I am reminded of 1 samuel 8:11 This will be the manner of the king that you will have over you. He will take your sons and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen...12... and to make his instruments of war...14.. and he will take your fields and vineyards...16... and your men and maidservants and put them to his work..18... and ye shall cry out in that day because of your king.
            19 but the people refused to hear the words and said, "Nay but we shall have a king over us and be like all the other nations".
            Our kings today are our governments.
            You see, man today wants to rule things his own way. Now God is not a dictator and he above all else certainly knows that what happens down here is not the be all and end all of everything but is only a shadow of greater and glorious things. Having tragedy in the world is not a case against God but a case for God will help. We don't think we are that far fallen from the garden, but we are - the knowledge of God is not in the world as it was in the garden. And all things are set in motion and patterns and ways for doing things are concreted. Should God now show himself and manifest in the sky for all to see; that would make the cross of christ a neglected thing. Each day someone dies, someone gets saved. Each day a crisis occurs, someone mentions Gods name.
            So since all is in operation we had best blame the lack of rain to chem trails or famine to the damming of rivers. Pollution, waste, excess of course is all mans doing. As all christians must get self off their thrones individually so must mankind get self off their thrones nationally.
            Personally i like the way things are. God has promised to look after and care for his own and because of that i can live stress free from the world man has created and just enjoy God for who he is.
            Of course you may not buy this but that is because you have this preconceived notion of how God must work. God must give to mankind the garden again so we can believe - but not necessarily obey. If God gave us the garden again would we walk in his ways or would we fall again. Realistically, we would fall again. Do we like our governments?  no, but we each year fill out our tax forms, perhaps we cheat a bit, but we fill them out like the good robots we are supposed to be. Do we like the police enforcement of 0.8? no. so we sneak along the backroads after a night of fun and drinking. Did we obey our parents even though we saw them daily? This notion of seeing is believing and "oh if only God would show himself i'd be a number one christian!" is false.

    We are not required to beg favor from God. In Matthew 7:7-8, He tells us:
    “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened."
    He is a loving father who is willing to give , not a cruel taskmaster who forces humiliation on us.

        Prayer is not dependent upon the words that are spoken, but the heart. Often people pray for selfish things even unknowingly.. oh God make me win the lottery and i'll tithe 50% - but what will you do with the rest? If i only had a really nice car - that chicks would look at... IF only i had a better job - that might take you away from family or cause you to be too occupied and not become the pastor that God wants you to be.
        Just because we pray does not mean God has to give it to us.  Unanswered prayer is always the fault of the one who prays who does not pray in accordance to the Fathers will.
                            -  it has not been proven to be a fraud -
        The bible has a scripture for this:
        James 4:3   Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.
        even jesus prayed the fathers will:
        Matthew 26:42   He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
        and the Lords Prayer: (very famous)
          Matthew 6:9   After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
          Matthew 6:10   Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
                      WOW.. thy will be done.. right at the top!
                         I hope this makes you feel better smile

    Nothing anymore.

    As a kid I begged God for death, to just not wake up in the morning, every night in my prayers for years. Luckily there wasn't anything listening to me or able to give me the brain aneurism/direct meteor strike to my bedroom. Also lucky for me is the fact that I have healed and no God didn't heal me, time and the love and support of friends might claim that honour but no God other then what I imagined was ever doing anything in my life, good or bad. So I wouldn't beg for anything anymore, I just get off my bum and get out there to make things I want to happen happen. Helpful hands are greater then prayerful lips smile

      A little rain in the right places and this kid would be well, healthy instead of half dead with hunger and thirst. It sure does sound like God is doing so much for you that he didn't have any time left over to send a little rain this kids way, I mean what with intricately planning your life out in such detail that you can do more the simply stay alive but live life to the fullest . Personally, for me, I would rather assume the responsibility for living my life to the fullest and see if the reduced work load might mean God can send a little rain to the various farms of the world preventing kids from getting into this sort of state, kinda makes living life to the fullest seem vulgar and obscene, especially when then giving the credit to a God that couldn't send a few rain clouds over the farms in Africa but hey, gotta keep all them christians and Muslims their rewards for their prayers. UGH! Better there be no God then such a cruel one as could allow such an innocent child to suffer such, for I could have nothing to do with such a creature.

    Most, if not all of the starvation in this world comes from corrupt governments unwilling to help their own people, but are more than willing to line their own pockets.  These governments are abdicating their God-given responsibility to care for the people that they govern.
        As a Christian, it is my responsibility to do what I can to alleviate the suffering of the poor and destitute, and I try to do this. If I were richer, I'd do more. Christians are left on this earth to preach the Gospel and to help lessen the evils caused by sinful mankind. In that way we demonstrate the love of God to this world.
         It is also good to know that this world of suffering is not all that there is. The effects of sin are still with us today, but will be totally eliminated when Christ returns.  Until then, rather than ask what God is doing, why not ask what you are doing?   He has given the job to each of us.

      Giving your imaginary God credit when good things happen...THEN...blaming man, when bad things happen.

      As you have already been thoroughly debunked months ago, you should give this abject nonsense a rest, and admit that your God is a delusion, based upon your rigid indoctrination, and fantastic ego, that allows you to think that, somehow, there is a Creator that knows, and cares for the likes of you...while allowing others to suffer and die.  Shame!

          God created these evil men, therefore He is to blame for everything that His bloody creation does.  Your logic, on this matter, is completely absurd, as you prefer to worship an omnipotent God with NO power over His own creation.  How ludicrous!

            On the contrary. God ultimately gets the credit for all the good done in the world. He created it. He defined the good. He gave us the ability to choose the good. However, free will demands that we have the ability to choose against the good as well. That is where the problem comes in. God did not make us robots. That would solve all the problems, but you would no longer be able to choose to be an atheist, or whatever you claim to be. You would no longer be you.

              This is where your beliefs get truly INSANE.  This free-will BS is the carte blanc for your ridiculous religious stupidity.  This is merely your inability to THINK. PERIOD!...and will no longer be accepted as an answer.  It has been proven that free-will cannot exist if God is omnsicient.  Do you not understand that?



              The problem is psychotic delusion.



              God, who is imaginary, did not make anything!



              Which is what you are looking forward to when you get to heaven...where free-will is abandoned.  I guess you will no longer be you.  How can this get any more absurd?

                   Firstly evil was not part of God's original creation, and will not be part of His new creation.

                  Secondly he drowned the whole population because they were evil and abandoned Him.

                In answering your question on free will, I think that you meant that God's omnipotence and freewill cannot exist together. Omniscience simply means all knowing.  And I don't think that I have ever seen you prove that either omniscience or omnipotence cannot co-exist with free will.

                  As far as psychotic delusion is concerned, it seems more psychotic to believe that everything just happened. Adding billions of years to it, cannot make the delusion any less fanciful.

                   And if my God is imaginary, then you couldn't prove it by the evidence as we know it. Life begets life. There is no evidence of abiogenesis. Maybe you hold to the theory that life from outer space planted us here. I see no evidence of that, so I will stick with God.

                  Finally, I made a choice to accept God through Christ years ago. In heaven, without the presence of sin and my old sin nature, it will be a joy to continue in the choice to love and serve God for eternity.

                  Then why did He eventually decide that, in all His omniscience, to create evil?  What kind of nonsense does your God walk around thinking?




                  Do you realize how insane this sounds?  MY GOD!  What a childish nincompoop your God is.  I imagine He just couldn't have euthanized humans and animals in a more humane way...you know...unlike a psychopath. Or better yet, just take responsibility for HIS mistake. Can't you see that it was God's screw-up and not man's.  Man did not make himself, according to you, therefore his maker is responsible for any defects.





                  Simple.  If God already knows the outcome of every action, how can anyone deviate from the course.  Is that too deep for your religious mind to grasp?  No free-will...only God's will...will be done.




                  Maybe.  But you are not just proposing that there COULD be a creator.  NO!  You are asserting that the psychopathic, bloodthirsty, evil entity of a 2000 year old book, written by ignorant goat herders, is what created everything.  THAT, my friend, is absolutely psychotic.




                  I guess the concept of common sense means nothing to a firmly deluded mind.



                  Oh yes.  The God from a 2000 year old book, written by ancient savages, which is an outright fraud.  Yes, what a safe bet!lol




                  I think it's safe to say that the only eternity you will have is total unconsciousness, no matter what the voices tell you.

                  But, you know, it's not so bad.  It's much better than living forever, and having to worship at the feet of your extremely SICK God.

                  In fact, I am going to pray that you DON'T go to heaven.  I don't think even you deserve that miserable, unbearable fate.

    Which god? And what would be your definition of a god?

    Religions try time and again to reason their way out of pinpointing what a god really is in the first place, whether with regards to theism, deism, pantheism or any other classification of a belief in a god an ideology might believe. But what they forget is that faith is't about reason. It's about believing, no matter what.

    There are those who've managed to scapegoat atheism into seeming irrational, but that's just a straw-man to draw our attention away from the lack of proof of an existence of a god.

    Forget that topic for a moment. If, when I die, I get to meet "the creator" then (assuming it's the Judeo-Christian-Islamic god YHWA/Allah) my immediate reaction would be not to beg. I'd know at first that if there were an omniscient, omnipotent being, I might be perfectly represented. Who better to know me inside and out, my thought's and intentions, better than that judge and jury? I might feel perfectly at ease knowing I need no argument.

    That being said, I think it might be said that in that instant though my disgust would pour through. All the atrocities of the Old Testament, as well as the New Testament and (I prefer at this point to remind myself of the inept probability of it not being so) the Qu'ran.

    Luckily though, there's no cause for a belief in a god. Simply weighing the number of gods I could believe in, by those that man has believed in and, no doubt, may believe in forthcomingly does the mathematician no surprise. That, compiled with the innumerable amount of scientific evidence that nature did not need a causal agent to begin, makes for a pretty vacant god.

    Religion need only walk to the gates of bigotry and ignorance with you (carrying you or not), but it's reason that breaks down the doors.

      Since when is logical to reject something altogether just because there are many interpretations of it? Obviously, whether something is true or false, has nothing to do with whether you believe it or not. It also has nothing to do with whether or not someone has a false understanding of it. It just means that they have a false  understanding of something that is true, or in the case of God, real.

        Your understanding atheism is a must before I go on.

        Atheism is a rejection of a belief in a god(s).
        It is not the belief that there are no gods, wholeheartedly. This is a misconception; though I personally hold the belief that no god exists that does not prescribe all atheists to my description.

        Also, I take it you're saying that all religions (besides your's, most likely Christianity) are incorrect and should be held to a lower standard [as per "It just means that they have a false  understanding of something that is true, or in the case of God, real."] This is your assumption. If I might share my assumptions about reality, I might say that all of reality should be held to the same standard; but we're not talking about reality, we're talking about the super-natural.

        So for anything more what you've said thus far to be taken as anywhere near credible, do the following:

        1. Prove undeniably that more than the natural universe exists.

        2. Then clearly identify the logical pathway between these findings and the belief that it ultimately describes the god of the bible.

        Personal anecdotes never count; they never have and never will. I saw a unicorn once, but that in and of itself doesn't make them real.

        Have at'r. If you can do it then you've done what two millennia of Christianity lacked.

          Does anyone ever do anything but reply to questions here on Hub Pages? That is why I don't like to get involved in these forums. It seems that everyone is just sitting around waiting to answer as soon as anything is written. And by the way it seems that in order for a theist to believe you, you would have to show that everything that exists, with its vast complexity and order, just popped out of nowhere over billions of years. No scientific theory can ever explain how a thing like inanimate matter can even exist, let alone come together to form our universe and even the most uncomplicated life forms that it has. Have at it!

            Where to start.

            Ad hominem attacks will get you nowhere. Now that that's out of the way...

            Claiming to know something is what the religious do; maybe you should have enough humility to not assume you're correct about everything and that no one else knows better.

            First, the big bang theory has been proven a multitude of times, you just need to read the right literature. Learn basic physics, then check out A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking. Does nothing more than shed light on mathematical provings.

            Secondly though, the BBT says nothing as to where the universe came from. I'm certainly not going to assume your a fool to get into science this much as to not be familiar with M (or String) Theory. Well, using the same mathematical equations that have the accuracy that's been compared to measuring the width of North America to within the unit of a human hair, scientists have mapped out how extra dimensional forces almost certainly had something to do with the formation of our universe.

            Oh, just one more thing. You're of course familiar with Einstein's formula E=mc^2 and it's near-infallibility? Yeah, well that's how the universe almost certainly sparked into expansion. With "E" being energy, "m" being mass and "c" being the speed of light (with that squared), it's commonplace within particle physics to observe particles "popping" in and out of existence. For example in a vacuum, where all matter has been taken out, there is essentially empty space. But within this chamber is far from 'nothing' as it holds the potential for what you would call 'creation', for just by there being energetic forces within may particles become real and de-materialize as described by the above equation. In fact, certain batteries rely on this effect as means of holding a resistant charge, if you don't see the practical application.

            So you see, this 'sparking' in and out of existence very likely caused the big bang which, in turn, caused the expansion of the universe.

            Read a text book?

              I have read many textbooks and accept the Big Bang. It is as good a theory as any for how God created the universe. But the Big Bang falls far short of explaining where matter comes from, or how any of this can cause even the simplest life form to exist.

                And by the way, I admire men of true science.  There are many scientists who won't be so prideful as to say that this whole vast universe is totally explainable without the existence of a creator. There is nothing that science has come up with to date that can explain away the complexity, order and life which this universe possesses.  And order demands one who orders it; life demands one who gives life.  Unless you have seen any examples of order coming out of chaos on its own, or life coming from non-life, it would seem you cannot explain away God either.

    1The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.

    2And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.

    3And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;

    4And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

    5Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:

    6And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

    7And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:

    8But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

    9Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

    10And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?

    11He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

    12For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

    13Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

    14And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:

    15For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

    16But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.

    17For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

    18Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.

    19When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

    20But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;

    21Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

    22He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

    23But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
    Matthew 13:1-23    And for the question that was at hand in the first place I give you this for my answer little johnny
    6Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

    7And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6
    This is MY answer, NO ONE ELSES.

Whether you do or not, that's who I do and my faith shall not be shaken because of disagreement between believers and unbelievers. This is my answer little johnny.

    If i had to beg (a) god for something, it would have to be an apocalypse.

    We f**ked everything up, and we need to start over again. ALL over again.

    I'm not sure about anywhere else in the world besides my small town here in america, but we have lost our core values and our moral ethics.

    It seems we are always out to hurt each other. Trying to be better then everyone else. Trying to be more powerful then anyone else. We take it into our own hands to teach someone a lesson, instead of letting their own guilt teach them. Such corruption. I would definitely beg (a) God for an apocalypse.

        ..Yea  the weather is truly wonderful as its Summertime.

        But I just don't do high 30's for days and days in a row!! and its probably the humidity that makes it feel worse.

        I really miss being so far from a beach or decent river.

        Even though its 4 seasons ,they are more extreme it seems.

        Like long periods of snow ,or heat ,and it doesn't rain ,its a thunderstorm- (pretty impressive too)..Ka Boom Thunderbolts galore!!

        My sis said it very chilly back in ChCh (NZ) too,and further  up North their roads are icy and treacherous!!

        Keep warm and hope your feeling better too now Earnest.

    I really want to see NY,spend a few days or so.

    Before moving up north we were in South Carolina for 18mths ,cradle of the civil war and met some very interesting Southerners!!
    Yes you are right ,culturally very different and I have been treated so well by Americans everywhere.

    Now we are up North and I like it too ,but for different reasons and of course I love to soak up the local atmosphere where ever I land.

    I read that John Keys(NZ Prime Minister) is currently dining at Warner Bros and having a B-B-Q with the Pres. tomorrow.

    Right now I'd pray for God to help those who can't help themselves. For my Mom to give my dad what he wants- to get full care in a nursing home/rehab and not be in our house and left on the potty for an hour because my sister left the house...idk
    and for innocent people not to be in jail.
    And for families to not hurt each other. (is that too much to ask?) how people can be so evil and call themselves Christians

        Why don't you pray that God will bring my son back. God murdered my son. He runs the show, so he did it through Divine Providence. Please, I beg God right now to send my son back to me and make me not be an alcoholic anymore. I want everyone to pray and get God down here to face me now. There will be a reckoning and I will fight him man to man. I have been training with local MMA fighters and I feel that I am ready to put God down and have him tap out for everything he has done to my life. Even the Almighty should be held accountable by his followers, i feel. He has put off his responsibility for too long and I think He wants us to stand up to him.

          I have not lost a son, and I have little understanding of how you feel other than to say that I would turn to alcohol or something, as I cannot even imagine your pain and hurt.

          Religion is rubbish, and the loss of your son is the issue that needs addressing here.

          I hope you have the love and forbearance to bear the unbearable, and if you need to talk to someone, email me, I am a good listener.

          Your statement means more than any god crud written in this thread.
          My sincere condolences.

            I appreciate your concern for me earnest. I do not feel that my religion is rubbish however. I just want God to be accountable for his actions is all. I will be publishing an article on this soon and it will explain everything that has happened in my life because of God. I just want a chance to yell at Him face to face like a man should. How can I express my anguish and anger through church leaders, etc. I need to talk to Him personally but every approach I have taken has failed. I think that God is not as smart as he used to be. We as his children have now surpassed Him and I don't know if I will ever be able to reach him now. It's just frustrating after all He has forced me to do in my life.
