Why blame God for Mans own wrong and then curse deny or ignore Him if He did not fix it unasked...?!! Mountain of Insanity
Do Man dare to proclaim who is innocent and who is guilty and in the same breath blame God for not immediately acting upon their judgement...! What sorry state has the world come to when good men thinks to know better then God...!

Of course I'm not saying that God doesn't exists, but if this world is the result of an omnipotent God than hell yes I know better than him.
I certainly don't proclaim to know who is guilty, but I can tell you for damn sure that innocent suffering exists, and it is unexplainable (from where I stand), by this omnipotent God I've been hearing about for so long.
If an omnipotent God had created this world, I would hope he/she/it would have accounted for this, but as far as I can tell there is no need for it. That's why I can't believe in this God, because like I said before, if these are his wishes (here on earth) then he's a dick. I'm perfectly o.k w/ dealing w/ the consequences of my own actions, and of course I take into consideration the possible consequences for others as aresult of my actions, so what I ask is why the **** did God skimp on this trait for some?
My conclusion is complicated. I think God might be at the mercy of pure logistics.Maybe some things are just the way they are and he can't control them, it's up to us. No more asking for God's help, just be the change you want to see, there is no external answer necessary. That is God's message to me at least: "I can't do it alone, I need your help." And hot damn I'm happy happy to help.
I don't like the idea of groveling because of original sin. Sure I've done plenty that needs forgiveness, but I was innocent as can be at birth. Original sin is bs imho.
My concept of God is ever evolving because the only thing I can say for sure is that there is no way of being absolutely certain, and I'm o.k. w/ that.
