Why God does not care.

[RandomVariable]

Two kids standing in the woods. Good kids, done nothing much wrong in their lives. They start talking about one of their teachers who is really hot, and married. Branch falls from a tree close by and crashes to the ground. One kids says, "Wow, let's change the subject." The other says, "Why?" Next day the two kids are walking along and the conversation turns to drugs. Branch crashes nearby. The first kid says, "Drugs are probably bad for us." The other says, "Now you are just being ridiculous." Day after that one kid is walking on the sidewalk and starts to cross the road. A branch crashes and he freezes. A car go whizzing by only a few feet away. The other kid is walking to meet his friend. He turns to cross the road. A branch crashes to the ground but it does not mean anything to him. He steps in front of a speeding car and is killed instantly. At the funeral the parents and relatives are crying and one sniffs and says, "How could God let this happen? God does not care."

Yes, bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad people but if you believe God does not care it is not that God has stopped talking, it is because you have stopped listening. And for all those out there who say, "Prove God exists." It is for you to decide if God exists and no one else can do that for you. Obey the laws of Moses, listen to God, and have a nice life.

The end. Cookies and milk at the back of room.

(I only take credit for the lousy posts, and threads.)

typical irreverence by christians for Garden Earth, humiliating a Tree to set an example for a couple of devious children.

Having a nice life is not dependent on your gawds or any other gawds.

It never ceases to amaze me that people will project these facile fables as "evidence" of their god.

God Will Save Me

A terrible storm came into a town and local officials sent out an emergency warning that the riverbanks would soon overflow and flood the nearby homes. They ordered everyone in the town to evacuate immediately.

A faithful Christian man heard the warning and decided to stay, saying to himself, “I will trust God and if I am in danger, then God will send a divine miracle to save me.”

The neighbors came by his house and said to him, “We’re leaving and there is room for you in our car, please come with us!” But the man declined. “I have faith that God will save me.”

As the man stood on his porch watching the water rise up the steps, a man in a canoe paddled by and called to him, “Hurry and come into my canoe, the waters are rising quickly!” But the man again said, “No thanks, God will save me.”

The floodwaters rose higher pouring water into his living room and the man had to retreat to the second floor. A police motorboat came by and saw him at the window. “We will come up and rescue you!” they shouted. But the man refused, waving them off saying, “Use your time to save someone else! I have faith that God will save me!”

The flood waters rose higher and higher and the man had to climb up to his rooftop.

A helicopter spotted him and dropped a rope ladder. A rescue officer came down the ladder and pleaded with the man, "Grab my hand and I will pull you up!" But the man STILL refused, folding his arms tightly to his body. “No thank you! God will save me!”

Shortly after, the house broke up and the floodwaters swept the man away and he drowned.

When in Heaven, the man stood before God and asked, “I put all of my faith in You. Why didn’t You come and save me?”

And God said, “Son, I sent you a warning. I sent you a car. I sent you a canoe. I sent you a motorboat. I sent you a helicopter. What more were you looking for?”

A lovely story.

Tell us about the story that allegedly occurred just a few thousand years ago when the gods magically made it rain for more than a month. There were no canoes, motor boats or helicopters to save those folks who were a huge disappointment to the gods. So, killem' all.

If I am making things too simple for you I can always kick it up a notch or two, or three or four. You seem like you're smart enough to keep up. Shall we give it a go?

Exactly. God uses what he has. If he has a branch, he uses a branch. If he has a car he uses a car, sometimes he uses tornadoes. Sometimes tornadoes are just thermodynamics and air currents. God intervenes, he does not micromanage. Unless he is taking over the whole mess.

So God does not exist?

'God' does not exist as perceived by theists; 'god' does exist as a creation of man, a religious contrivance or philosophical construct – 'god' as the collective goodness of man, or 'god' as the collective conscience of man – a metaphor, simile, or idiomatic allusion.

There is not, however, an omnipotent extraterrestrial entity that 'hears prayers,' 'intercedes' on the behalf of mortals, and issues religious edicts that must be obeyed lest the transgressors be subject to some post-mortem 'punishment.'
