All of the world is a stage, and I, a mediocre actress.
Never heard of the guy

Why does this supposed heavenly father try to make my life like this? While I sit here, trying to please everybody, especially HIM, he just tries to shove a lightening bolt up my behind. I am SICK of this! I'm starting to doubt the existance of this so called God that everybody keeps raving about. I mean who, immortal or otherwise, could let there be this much corruption and chaos in the world without trying to help? People are starving, being tortured, getting beaten, burned, and otherwise. What does he do about it? He just sits there and basks in the glory as people all over the world worship him. I don't get it. Not just that, but if time doesn't apply to God, then why CAN'T he just keep all these bad things from happening? Why can't he just STOP torture and anguish so that the world would be good? As far as his so-called miracles, if he wastes his time with all of these born-again christians, why doesn't he put his little miracles to better use, such as, oh I don't know, solving world hunger? He hasnt done anything too nice for me. Almost everything I have, I worked for. Heh, wouldn't it be funny if Jesus and Moses were just scitzophrenics or people who just wanted to gain acceptance by making up all these stories? It would be the biggest scam in history, I'd imagine. I just don't get it anymore. I used to love God. I used to love him when I was a worm, buying into what everyone told me, but then something happened. I finally saw my neighbor get beat up by her intoxicated boyfriend. She was an empty shell. She didn't know what to do. I just wondered why God couldn't make her see the way to escape. The way to supposedly be free. I don't know, maybe there is no such thing as freedom. But there is such a thing as misery. Misery could have been prevented from empailing itself onto my neighbour and her children, but no. Instead, some high-class yuppie with no soul saw "the light". He wasn't suffering, he was just fine like that. He didn't have to worry about where to find his next meal. He probably never felt the pain in his whole life that my neighbour's eight year old had felt. Our heavenly father. What a joke.

Try complaining to God instead of everyone else. Maybe he will answer you. That's what the people in the Bible did.

You may feel like God is no where to be found. There is a reason for everything though. THe reason there is so much pain in the world is because of sin. It is because God gave us the gift of choice and so many have chosen to stray from him. There is a lot of evil in the world, yet God is there. Jesus spent 40 days and 40 nights in the desert being tortured, he has gone through everything we have. I know things look rough, but give it to God, tell him your frusrations, pray for an answer, pray for healing. THe best advice I have ever been told was God always answers prayers, but sometimes the answer is no. I will pray for your neighbor and her family.

Your complaints are misdirected--blame Bush.

Ah, Another disenchanted soul.

I have been where you are... It's important to keep faith, just question where your faith is?

God doesn't care about you, you have to care about yourself, so when it all gets too much, dont worry about blaming God, just ask what YOU can do to make the situation better.

I dont beleive in God per se, but I would argue I am amongst some of the most spiritual people I know... God doesn't have the answers, but the world does... the only problem is that God can be so big, or made out to be big at least, that he clouds everything else the world has to offer...

I dont want to dissuade you from your faith, but I am glad you are questioning it, as opposed to conforming with the masses....

BAM!!!
