What would you do if you found out God existed
|
Yay, Ceiling Cat!
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Wait! Coveting your neighbor's hot wife is not a sin?!

No one knows the path and anyone pretending to is either a con artist or deluded. If a god has something to say then there should be nothing standing in their way from coming down here and saying it. To do otherwise is to admit to being unworthy of attention of any kind. Or to be nonexistent. Since the latter is more likely, we'll stick with that. Surely that would be more respectful than thinking he's a lazy, cunty prick.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

You just do not understand, not even the what if put before you. I can answer those questions of yours the Bible deals with them and you would know if you cared to read it. Sin answers most of your questions, and God did not create sin Lucifer brought it into existence and man swallowed it hook line and sinker and now we suffer for it. If God were to appear before you you wouldn't be able to say anything, but hey believe as you wish but one day soon enough you will meet Him face to face and you will be speechless. GC
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Specifically those wrongdoings that hurt other people, because each one of those people are God's children. You need to understand the oneness of existence. Everything is God and God is everything but nothing in particular. If you love the Prophet, you have loved both God and all goodness in creation, and every living part of creation, because of the tree of life model which is the reality, we are connected by fabrics of "value" "giving measurement due" "love", which is really how things are created, just as the uncleanness all emerges from the spirit of Satan, the good in creation all emerge from the chosen ones and chosen guides. And if you love the Prophet, you love primarily because he is the way to God, and because the way to God is being a mercy creation. When you see the throne of God and the noble true kingdom and light, you will see that any disregard towards any right, was rebellion to God, and God cares about people more than they care about themselves, that is why Quran emphasizes when we oppress ourselves and do injustice towards our own soul, we remember God and ask forgiveness from him.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

So because god is so lazy and inept, everything is entirely one-sided and we have no way of knowing if he's even there, we just have to suffer enough brain damage to be able to believe in it if we're not indoctrinated as children with only a microscopic proportion of the population actually being indoctrinated to believe in the 'right' version of this. Gotcha. So no god worthy of worship, love or any regard of any sort whatsoever. Boy are your standards low. What does that say about YOU?

Knowing God exists is easy, knowing who God is and the I path to him, that takes another level. And knowing that path, and taking it, is exactly a whole different thing, and knowing the path and way and door doesn't mean you will enter it and take it. Take a flying fuck through a rolling doughnut, MK. At least CL actually talks to us like human beings.
