RE: If you could correct "god's" mistakes...
April 16, 2018 at 7:50 pm
Well, I wouldn't try to keep knowledge of good and evil from Humans in the first place, or curse them and the rest of the world for doing something wrong. Nor would I sit on my ass while things went to shit, until seemingly the only way to fix things is killing swaths of them.
More seriously, I would make sure that everyone who worships me has the most ideal life possible, regardless of where they live, and not base my judgements on them on faith. What better way to gain converts than noticing somehow my followers can grow crops in the arctic, or live in the middle of the worst most corrupt city in the world without anything bad happening to them.
Some teenage girl walking down the streets of Harlem at night, and someone asks "Aren't you afraid of getting mugged, kidnapped, or raped?" And she's like "Nah, I've got God on my side", and she's totally going to be safe because an all powerful deity really is on her side.
And before anyone asks about free will, I'll just say that I value the free will of my follower more than the free will of a criminal that would do her harm. She could wear what she wants, and go where she wants.

I'd guarantee there is no suffering.
I'd send a meteor every million years to make sure the fuckers never evolve long enough to develop a nervous system.
Everybody wins...
Why bother, you ask?
I've been asking myself that question for decades...
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

If I had followed the biblical script and only created two people, I would have put the tree of knowledge somewhere on the other side of the universe. I would have given them the knowledge of microbiology! That little beasts we can not see bring disease. Washing hands, boiling water, cover your mouth when you cough. Don't fear the leper, actually hard to catch. Cover your dicks with sausage casings! Imagine how much suffering could have been avoided.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!

The Valkyrie, why can't God put humans in to cages so they spend their lives in suffering and when they mature enough enjoy their meat like we do to animals?
Human world is ok, although afterlife sucks big time according to believers.
I would just erase all sinner who are fed up with life in afterlife if I were God and leave human world as it is.

I would prevent them from ever breeding.

I think I would make everyone a god in their own right and give them their own universe to play with. Kinda like a cosmic sandbox. Maybe sprinkle in some universal rules regarding harm and suffering.
Everyone is a Q.

Not a good idea. Bullimia would become a form of masturbation.

I think I wouldn't improve anything ... i think so...
or no wait.. i know
it would be cool if I could eat whatever I want and when I want and I would never put on weight ...
I love eat
I don't eat to live but i live to eat!!!
"Alone is what I have. Alone protects me."
“I may be on the side of the angels but don’t think for one second that I am one of them.”
“The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery each day."

It's bad enough that we can feed the poor now, and don't. Imagine if there was unlimited eating with no consequences to our health. What food would be left for the poor?
God is the best designer.

#1. I wouldn't create Cancer, because I'm not an asshole.
#2. People wouldn't need to eat to survive. In fact I'd do away with the whole 'eating' thing. No worries about obesity OR World Hunger. People get all the nutrients they need from the sun and/or moon.
#3. People would regrow limbs and organs, thus doing away with the whole 'murder' thing.
#4. Regeneration would also mean we age much slower.
#5. Homosexuality would not be a sin. In fact fuck whoever you like, as long as they're consenting, and capable of consent.
#6. I'd explain evolution, and the fact the world revolves around the sun not the other way around. Because my people aren't going to be idiots.
#7. I'd also reveal myself to more than just a tribe in the middle east, and hope everyone else gets it right.
#8. Endangered animals would be bulletproof, and have heightened senses. Also they'd have lightning speed, so they could kill anyone who hunts them.
#9. People who molest children would be mauled by bears as soon as they try to kidnap a kid.
#10. Everyone would be born with at least some modicum of common sense.
#11. Men and Women could both get pregnant, and could only get pregnant by eating a special fruit that grows freely in the world before having sex. Pregnancy would then last exactly 3 days, and be absolutely painless. No weight gain. In fact I like the whole stork delivery idea. So let's go with that. You get pregnant, the child is then taken from your body painlessly, and zapped to a safe location until the STork is able to deliver it 2 days later. Yeah, the stork is Amazon Prime. But more reliable. Your baby will be available in 2 days!
#12. In fact, I wouldn't create any illnesses, or mosquitoes.
#13. Hating someone for their race would turn you into a member of that race. Just to fuck with them.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.
