You will never be able to comprehend how someone can believe in God. It is an impossibility for you.

To believe you would have to be tapped on the shoulder by God and shake his hand!

True believers have such a strong faith that they would die for God. You find that so hard to understand. Thats understandable. For me, its easy to understand
 
Either God can do nothing to stop bad things happening, or he doesn't care to, or he doesn’t exist. God is either impotent, evil, or imaginary. Take your pick, and choose wisely.
 
Could someone kindly inform me how I can turn this thread off please? Surviving the first phase was hard enough, but Hari Kari is preferable to any more. Anyone, please?

Why do people pray?

Is it to ask gawd to correct what they think is his original poor decision?

I'm sure many in Grenfell prayed literally for their lives as the flames approached. Why did they pray? What did they expect?

They knew the chances were they were going to die in the most horrible way. If they had 'faith', they also presumably accepted it was their god's will.

So why did they pray? To try and change god's mind?

We have free will. We are weak beings. Imagine if God made everyone immortal? World is bad enough now without having the evil people in the world immortal!

I can give you my 100% assurance, Kools, that I do understand why someone can believe in god.

I also fully understand why those who believe cannot provide basic answers to the simplest of questions.

Its generally the weak and innocent that get the tough life, early death.

The real evil bad types seem to live for ever!

Pretty selective is he ?

No we don't have free will. Think of something, what comes into your mind? Did you have any control over that thought entering your mind? No. See?!

How weird that you would allow your god to have the power to make us all immortal but are pleased that he doesn't ('Thank god he doesn't do that - but he could if he wanted to! He could!', you exclaim) but you won't entertain your god having the option of simply stopping evil in its tracks and making the whole world a blissfully happy paradise.

Look, I'm not one to tell god what to do - tho' I consider myself to be a far better person than he - but what if he did give us all happy paradise here on earth. How nice! And the bludy jihadists would have nothing spesh to look forward to...
 
The people who died in the Grenfell Tower fire, where was God for them?

Did he choose to do nothing about it?

Was he unable to do anything about it?

Or is it that he simply doesn't exist?

Or, to put it another way, it didn't actually matter at all, not a jot, whether he existed or not.

It made - and makes - no difference. At all. None.
