Gods Faulty Love?
11.24.05 (1:39 pm) [edit]
Does god love you? when asked to a Christian the answer is always "YES YES YES, we know he loves us" someone i know pointed out this absurdity and reccomended i write it down here.
God is off course infinite, and humans are only finite, our finite minds cannot understand Gods infinite emotions?
So presumably God is just a stranger if we cannot understand him, how are we supposed to know whether a stranger loves us?
God has an infinite mind, to understand him you must have an infinite mind, since you do not God cannot be presumed to be understood.
God may hate Christians most of all for all they know.

Quote "yeah a bunch of my friends are quasi satanists so they like to at least pretend to know what im talking about." UnQuote.
So, they don't really understand you...they pretend too. Well, see, I believe God understands everything I go through each day. He was persecuted, ridiculed, denied, slandered, beaten and hated. Some of those same things have happened to me so He understands what I have been through.
We can understand God and have a relationship with Him if we so desire but we have to have that desire and persue that desire. It doesn't come without dying to oneself.

Oh...I forgot one really important issue...God loves everyone not just Christians. He loves the Muslums, the Islams, the Asians, the Catholics, the Mormons. He loves everyone. Even you!

So very true. You can never reallu know. Faith can lead you to believe things that may not even be real or true and can even make you do things. Awesome post.

I'm reading this book and it's called God Doesn NOT Create Miracles YOU DO! I think after reading your post again you might like it. It's by Yehuda Berg, I will tell you now it's a Kabbalah book and part of a set but so good.

Reply to Kurt: Umm..If you are a Muslim, you must accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and then you can spend eternity with God. Simple as that. :-)

It might interest you to know that neither Asians nor "Islams" belong to a certain religious group.
Kupov, you are a lot less annoying and a lot more thoughtful here than on FYG. I'm not saying that I like having to play along with the Christians, it's just that it's easier to get your ideas across when you have their respect.
I've even discovered that fundies can be people too (sometimes). Who would've thought?

Even more evidence that a man name mohammad lived and died, NO evidence that he was a prophet.

no matter what religion we practice, we believe in one God and that that God loves us unconditionally. i respect your opinions but i do hope you would also respect the opinions of others. Peace! Ü

Come on now did you just read the title of the post?

"God" is just an abstract concept used by humans to justify their behaviours, good or bad. "God" blocks the path to understanding and happiness by providing humans with a simple explanation to complex problems that leave us feeling powerless. "God" is the manifestation of humankind's desire to ultimate power and control. "God" was invented by humans, not the other way around.
That is an undeniable fact.

Well - aside from other things, yes! If you've got a stronger arguement, (which you haven't) I'd love to see you give it a go.
Have you ever experience "God" outside your own head? Have you ever used "God" to explain something you didn't understand? Or so you'd feel better about something? Then you're just using this pissy, loop-hole type concept to control things that you can't.
