A judge?
God judges kids too?
How about amputees,deformed people,destitutes,syndrome-sufferers,etc that don't really know what it means to be alive?
My questions end here.
But your answers can never justify such insane cruelty.
Nature is screwing Man already.
And it will be utterly absurd to call life on Earth a gift.
It is actually a possibility that involves all manners of misdeamenors.
So you can also call it a chance to exist.
Ultimately, it's all about probabilities upon probabilities.
God is not judging kids.
Your statement in bold answers the question.

I posted these questions to one of the threads under the religious forum. But I found these questions interesting and I decided to dedicate a thread to answering these questions. Some of these questions are questions that have haunted me way back when I was still a christian:

* Why does geography seem to have far more to do with one's religious choice than actual free will?
* How can you say God loves and cares about everyone if some people suffer while others prosper?
* Even if we assume that one particular religion is true, doesn't the existence of many religions at least prove that mankind likes to make up religious stories, and that people have a tendency to believe them? How do you know yours isn't one of those?
* If everyone actually believes in the Christian god, why would highly religious non-Christians purposefully following the wrong religion, especially when that religion is more strict or just as strict as any sect of Christianity?
* If Adam and Eve only knew good and evil after eating the fruit, then why did God assume when he told them not to eat it that they knew it was "wrong"?
* Why do we inherit sin from our ancestors, but salvation has to be an individual choice?
* If god is omniscient, (all knowing), why do you need to pray to him?
* If god is omniscient, (all knowing), why does he need to test us?
* If god is omnibenevolent, (All Loving) why did he create evil? In Isaiah 45:7 the scripture reads as follows: "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things."
* Please explain the difference between a "Claim" and "Evidence" and after doing so, please show me the evidence for your god.

P.S I want to appeal now before its too late. If you're a christian and the only thing you're going to do in this thread is hurl insults, I'd advise you to reconsider and stay away from this thread. Lets try our best to keep a civil argument

XxSabrinaxX, before I answer your questions, let me state clearly that I'm not a Christian but I believe so much in God.

1. WHICH GOD?
2. HOW DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS GOD?
3. WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THIS GODS NEEDS YOU, YOUR ATTENTION AND PRAYERS, AND HOW HAS THIS GOD TRIED TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU DIRECTLY?
4. I'M ASSUMING YOU WERE RAISED A CHRISTIAN, AND JUST LIKE THE REST OF US YOU DECIDED TO DISCARD "RELIGION" AFTER A COUPLE OF THINGS DIDN'T MAKE SENSE UPON INVESTIGATION BUT YOU STILL LIKE TO HOLD ON TO THE IDEA THAT SOMEHOW, SOMETHING OR SOMEBODY CREATED AND CONTROLS THE WORLD.
IN ALL SINCERITY, I WOULD LIKE YOU TO TELL ME IF WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT YOUR RELIGION PASSED DOWN TO YOU MOST LIKELY BY YOUR PARENTS, YOU WOULD COME TO "KNOW" OR "BELIEVE" THAT GOD EXISTS.

XxSabrinaxX, before I answer your questions, let me state clearly that I'm not a Christian but I believe so much in God.

There's different between being religion and being spiritual. Religion is serving God via keeping the laws of man while spirituality is serving God without the laws of man. Religion is man-made while spirituality is not. Religion is following the ways of others while spirituality is following your own way. Religion defines God but spirituality defines you. Religion limits God but spirituality explodes Him. Religion is a tool of control but spirituality is a tool of discovery. Religion crushes your mind but spirituality explodes your mind. Religion is limited but spirituality is limitless.

Since I'm not religious, I won't be able to answer your questions.

Thank you for your beautiful questions.

1. The God that I serve.

2. First from my family, then the society at large which includes the church.

3. He doesn't need me. I needed Him. He communicate with me every single seconds of my life.

4. I would, simply because I've being in a state where I stop believing in God. For 3 years I stopped believing in him. But, I founded him again.

I moved higher Sir. My best religion till date is Christianity. But like every single religion out there, it put God in a box. I'll give you an instance.

I have met people from every facet of life who are good and not necessarily religious. But religion will tell me only those who do this and this are good.

I SAID IT. THIS ONE IS JUST A CONFUSED WANT AWAY CHRISTIAN. YOU CLAIM TO NO LONGER BE A CHRISTIAN BUT YOU KNOW GOD, BUT EVERYTHING YOU POSTED SUGGESTS YOU STILL ALIGN WITH THE CHRISTIAN GOD IDEA, THE SAME THING YOU CLAIM TO HAVE DISCARDED.

IN MY OPINION DEISTS ARE MORE CONFUSED THAN THEIST. WITHOUT BEING BRAINWASHED BY YOUR PARENTS AND THE SOCIETY THERE'S NO WAY YOU WILL FIND THIS GOD YOU TALK ABOUT.. BECAUSE IT IS NOT THERE.

YOU EVEN CLAIM "HE" TALKS TO YOU?
SO THIS GOD CAME TO YOU AND SAID IT'S GENDER, WHICH COINCIDENTALLY IS MALE JUST LIKE THE GOD OF CHRISTIANITY YOU ONCE BELIEVED.... IF YOU HEAR AN IMAGINARY MAN TALKING TO YOU YOU BETTER VISIT A PSYCHOLOGIST BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.

thats precisely why I asked her to share.

Most of these religious people mistake correlation for causation.

They had issues, they said prayers to a non existent God, their issues went away, they now believe the prayer and God caused the issues to go away
