Ask God ANYTHING!

Ask God (any God) things that have been bugging you. (I can't guarantee you'll get a reply though!)

God, 

Why do you hate homosexuality so much, when you've made animals that are homosexual (and yet haven't fallen)?

Why did you stop the Tower of Babel being built, yet you didn't stop spaceships soaring up past the highest buildings and into space itself?

Seeing as apologetics have enough trouble explaining how all the animals managed to fit on the ark, where was the room for all the sinners even if they had wanted to get onboard?

How about "what is with your hard on for beetles?" (can't remember who I'm paraphrasing there, but beware not an original thought!)

How about "why did you orchestrate so many wars amongst us?"

The first question is a parahrase of Sam Harris. I know because I was just reading over "Letter to a Christian Nation" again today and came across it.

Dear God, Why are the

Dear God,

Why are the people you send out into the world to bring us your message so stupid and such poor examples of morality. 

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful. - Seneca

Dear God,

If one of your commandments is "Thou shalt not kill," why did you drown so many people in the big flood?

That would be like me going deer hunting and then coming back and telling people, "Deer hunting is wrong!"

Answer please!

God, Here's another

God,

Here's another question.

In the Bible ( Mathew 24:36 ) Jesus says that nobody will know when he will return to earth again. Not even him. Only God knows the day.

So God, you don't want Jesus to know when he's going to return to earth? Why not? Are you afraid he's going to tell somebody? Are you afraid he's going to tell Satan?

Don't you think you should let Jesus know when he's going to return to earth? What if Jesus already has plans for that day?

Do this. Tell him and make him promise never to tell anybody else. And then if he does tell somebody else, take his wine making powers away for a month.

Come on God. Tell the boy. Don't let him find out from somebody else.

I found these ones: Can you

I found these ones:

Can you create a rock so heavy that even you cannot lift it?

Why do you hate the little children that don't know you?

How and when do you celebrate your birthday?

Why is my sense of compassion and fair play so much more developed
than yours?

If I believe in you, am I more likely to believe in bigfoot?

Do you not find it arrogant to create an entire universe to worship and serve you?

Why create anything? Some

Why create anything? Some people have talked about free will, but that contradicts omniscience. If you're omniscient, there are truly no surprises in your existence, so why go through all the contortions of creating a universe of rules, then engineering all kinds of stuff that has to work within those rules? How would doing so even be possible? It would be like trying to bounce a ball that stayed wherever it was when your hand left it, suspended in mid air because the only force able to act is yourself. When you do stuff like that, it just makes it easier to assume you don't exist.

So you demand that we not kill but it's okay for you to Kill?

And you do it for the good of humanity? You kill thousands of men, women, and children for the good of humanity? You drown elderly people for the good of humanity? You drown toddlers and infants for the good of humanity?

You kill babies. And for this you want us to love you?

If you were real and that was true, I'd say you were a real sicko!

Dear God,   What's with

Dear God,

 

What's with all the slacking off in the miracle/crazy demands department lately? The biblical crowds got all kinds of attention. You appeared to them as burning bushes, you made Night of the Living Dead a reality, you killed thousands of innocent children in one fell swoop, and you commanded a man to build an enormous boat so that you could flood the entire earth!

Well, okay, to be completely fair, you did promise that you would never do that last one ever again, but it's the principle.

Why no miracles these days? Why no insane demands? I mean, even if it was the old gag where you freak out a father by commanding him to kill his own son, only to shout "Just kidding! Huzzah!" at the last minute, that would be something.

I guess what I'm saying is that you just don't scare the holy living shit out of people the way you used to. You've lost your edge. You are no longer the cosmological Fonz. What happened?

Not scared shitless,

A place common to all will be maintained by none. A religion common to all is perhaps not much different.

Dear God

Why do you allow people of other belief systems to have miracles that would cause them to believe in other gods? I mean doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of you?

Actually, that's being investigated.

We're in the process of determining if this person is a theist (in which case the posts will be removed) or if it's a member that's created a second account (which is against forum rules).

Dear God,  If you are love

Dear God,

 If you are love why did you create existence, invent evil, allow the torture, pain, and death of so many?

 Why did you create a form of salvation that would ensure that most people would spent all of eternity in hell?  Why couldn't you devise a better system to save everyone?

 Is freewill in your faithful servants more important to you than the eternal suffering of those that use their freewill to not believe in you?

Ahhh, this is what the fuss is about.  

Question, though - is God a theist? 

I hope that when the world comes to an end I can breathe a sigh of relief, because there will be so much to look forward to.
