Why does God have favorites and cause others to suffer so horribly.You are one among many favorites.
Why does he allow so many kids to be abused by priests and do nothing..are the priest such favorites that they can get away with such terrible acts of betrayal of trust and continue with such horrible unforgivable behaviour.
You know sometimes I just think it is all just such a load of crap and so sad that there are humans who just gloss over the gross inconsistencies with out any thought...I mean how do you rationalise such things...God works in mysterious ways or could it be that religious folk simply dont think it thru... is all they hear is the lies about another life... the christian next door where I once lived told me(after explaining there must be a God just look at a tree) told me he was working hard so he could make up for all his sins (crimes actually) so he could go to heaven... is that how shallow folk are..it seems that way.
Is the promise of an alleged pay off by way of another life so grand that theists will put up with anything...
I reckon if you want a God why not make up a good one..and use the input of great minds from this age not the ramblings of bronze age goat herders...you could get rid of the nonsence... The problem is the church or similar destroys all ability to think it seems... clearly you dont think about the inconsistency of priests molesting children..How can you just let that pass...not your kids so you dont care I guess....its wrong and yet the show goes on...I heard Bill Maher say.. if there was only one turd in the pool would you still swim in it...there is more than one turd in the religious dogma pool and yet people still swim...what is so lacking in your life that the promise of another lets you turn a blind eye to the problems lies and inconsistency. Have you no conscience.
Favorites indeed... that would be terrible. Heck I ran a small business and even I would not have a favorite employee.. all equal, all special and not one did I push under a bus...Why cant God be as decent as me... strike down a child molesting priest and stop the suffering of innocent folk.
I have said it as a joke but I recon I follow more of Jesus teachings than any christian I have met...and I dont even believe in him...if only theists practiced what they preach the world world be so much better.
and what does the church do with their "problem" priests...fire them???..no move them some place else new and hope no one talks and causes a scandel... that is so wrong...it is wrong isnt it..do you think of that...no not your kids so no you dont.
I saw these two christians on utube saying how God wanted them to get another lear jet so they could get to meeting easy...and ask folk to send money...that is so wrong..folk taking advantage of poor stupid people.
