Answer 1

oh gosh... uhm.. theists would probably say, "God has a reason for that."but since i'm not one, then i can say, hey, god is just someone you think is causing all these ruckus. i guess u should make a choice to believe god or not from this point on. test your faith in him. and whatever you did choose, remember, YOU chose that, not god. (i mean if it is god, then why would he want to lose a follower, right?)

Answer 2

Free will is ours to decide. Father God has known, knows and will always know the results of our decisions before we make them, whether the decision we make is to the left hand or to the right. But the choice is entirely up to us. The gospel story of the prodigal son is an excellent example of God letting his people make their own decisions and living with the consequences.

Answer 3

Everything is how God wants it. Evil Good, truth, lies, they are all FROM GOD. If God wants you to be ignorant and curse him, then that's what you will do, not because you are evil, but because that is your part in the plan.

I used to have a Calvinist minister as a roommate. He said, why didn't he just go out and sin? God forbid! (I always laugh when I say that one, most people read right over it and don't get it. Why don't they get it? God forbid. Ha, ha, ha! )

If you believe in free will there CANNOT BE A GOD. It's that simple.

Answer 4

"he"doesn't control you

------you control yourself------

never forget that

Answer 5

God is just an imaginary being that exist in the delusional mind.

Be an atheist and you will be free.

Answer 6

You have a morbid facination for this god person/object.

Answer 7

Hello. What if He wanted this to happen? As said in my last answer I think that God didn't want to deny Lucifer his heavenly rights. If God could see what Lucifer would do would that affect his love for his own creation? I think that God either wants the forseen events to happen or he just doesn't want to intervine for some reason. Also what if God does things for the utilitarian reason? Why would God want to stop his son who, willingly, renewed millions of people's faiths through his sacrifice. I think that God has given humans the gift of non-oppresional control. It's like we think that were making our own choices but what if the very events that lead to them were divinely enhanced? If God didn't let A & E eat the apple then what would've happened? The two people would have gone on forever without individual thought in their minds because they know a God exists. I truly don't know his reason but I think that there is one because he is God and he, could possibly, control everything or nothing at all. Also, if he decides not to do something does that make him any less magnificent? If a diety decides it doesn't want to exercise it's power for the benefit of a bunch of non-believing humanoids, not talking specifically about God by the way, does that make it less magnificent or less caring about things that don't care about it? If the people who worship God go through horrible times does it mean that God is watching them and not doing anything? Or is he ensuring that the people who think their going through hard times not go through something that will destroy their faith? With God almost any situation can be turned around for the good because of God, as is the case with most religious people, but I am not one of them simply because of my answer. It can also be seen that the people who go through hard times simply don't care because they feel close to God to they focus on living and worship as opposed to advanement. I think you're sitting here asking these questions because you wish to know why a diety would seem to take such inaction in a world he supposedly created, why so many people would seem to care for an "invisible" God, as it were, or why people even choose to live with a God who doesn't flaunt his power in front of them keeping them as obediant pets such as a cat or dog who lives in fear of their owner. I think he doesn't prove himself to you because, not to sound so rude and don't get the wrong impression, you really are rather insignificant, as am I, compared to the earth and universe. Why should a creator, excepted or otherwise, have to prove himself if he created you? As for waiting utill death to see I don't know why. If you think he controls so much what makes you think that HE DOESN'T control you? People seem, to me, to be under some delusion, whether they believe or not, that they are beyond any god's control. I believe that God just might control everything but it would seem superfluous. I would like you to message me stating why you for a fact under no cercumstances are not under God's control. I apologize if I left anything out but the answer is long and I'm really just going through the question as I type. As in my last answer I don't know why so many people think that God HAS to DO anything at all to be considered magnificant or even acknowledged. I also hope that if you read the prequal to this question that you will not limit God TOO much in your mind. Good bye.

Answer 8

The religious stories are fictitious.

Answer 9

Because god is fake.  I think people just believe in god for hope.  Theres no evidence of god except for the bible, and everytime someone question how god exists, Christians always have the same answers like "Just folllow the bible and he will guide you" or something like that.  And when someone asks then howcome god doesn't heal cancer, or aids or answer my prayers,   The answer is always "Thats Gods plan and thats how he wants it to be for a some mysterious reason."

Christians dont believe in science and they believe the world was created 6000 years ago from a person named "God"  Then how come they use all the technology that is made from science? Like cell phones or cars and things liek that.  If science was fake.

Well i just think that religion is all fake stories made up and people just want to believe that theres someone guiding them in life for hope.  It might sound crazy but i believe that theres no such thing as life and everything we see, taste, hear,smell is just our imagination.  Nothing and nobody exists and were all just imagining it in our minds.  We are living in one big dream and the world is fake.

Answer 10

Yes God did know what would happen before he made man and yet he did. He did so out of love - he loves us and wants our love in return thus the reason for free will. He made us in His image but we are the ones who sinned not God. Would you want to be loved by someone who loves you because they want to or because they have no other choice. God doesn't want an army of worshipers who do not think or feel- he wants believers who love Him and want his love in return. God sent his son out of love, he made us out of love. He doesn't make the bad things happen they happen because of sin. You are questioning God's existence because it is easier to see and believe then not see and have faith. Why are you so important that you can demand God to prove His existence to you? We ask God to bless us, keep us safe, cure us and still want more. Now you want him to magically appear- he can but why should he? Look around you- go see a baby being born and tell me there is no God- you do not have to wait until you die to see God- you have to use your heart not your eyes to see. God loves his children and it pains him much more than it pains us when bad things happen- but he is there to help us through- nothing is impossible with God. He must have his spirit in you or you would not be questioning him at all. Listen to that spirit- let it guide you and you will find the peace, hope and love God has for you if you believe in Him

Answer 11

The answer for all the why is: He is still on the Throne!  He is in perfect control.  He is almighty God!

For He says, “I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion.”  You will say to me then, “Why does He still find fault? For who has resisted His will?” But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, “Why have you made me like this?” Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor? What if God, wanting to show His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction, and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory. (Romans 9:10-23 - abridged)

Friend, there are many things which you and I cannot understand now... and many which you and I cannot understand forever.  But in everything, just remember - He is in perfect control. He knows!  Trust Him.

Answer 12

it's just like asking yourself why you still run for a marathon even if you're lagging behind your oponents and yet you run and never gave up even if you know that some one has already gotten to the finish line before you.

what i mean is, though you know what was to happen, you still went for it and in the back of your mind, you still had that hope that you will somewhat win. and you want to fight for it 'till the end because you love it.

maybe He still believes in the goodness of men and that in the end, He believes He will win.
