You do believe God exists, don't you? You're just angry at Him and don't understand.
This life isn't about finding happiness. It's about finding out whether or not you're on God's side. It's a pilgrimage.
That's why God doesn't heal amputees and why He doesn't give you a million dollars. He isn't a magician or a genie. And I doubt you'd respect Him more if He took on such roles. I suspect that you'd respect Him less if He did.
I apologize for the ugly things I've said to you and the other posters on this forum. But if you're interested in your true purpose, then you must turn to God.

A believer that believes a god does certain things for him while that same god ignores the atrocities of the world does not make god real.

LOL, no, I don't. I just told you I wasn't interested in your gods purpose...you quoted me...?
If your telling me that a god isn't a magician or a genie is supposed to mean that it's literally incapable...I think that you have a shit god.
If your telling me that god is not a magician or a genie is supposed to mean that it could, but doesn't...I think that you have a shit god.
If I could heal amputees, I would. I wouldn't care whether or not that made me a genie or a magician..and, frankly, I wouldn't care if it made anyone respect me. I'm sure that they'd thank god instead of me anyway, right after I performed the magic trick that he can't or won't do. I think that it's ludicrous to worship a being, real or imagined, that fails a test so simple and routine for human beings to succeed at.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

we don't, because we can't.
God could, but refuses to do so because he is that much of a cunt.
If it turned out that god was real, I wouldn't worship him, I would do my level best to kill the evil bastard.

That sounds like a great fantasy flick movie.

Is it wrong for an amputee to pray for such a healing? By the way, I will convert to Christianity (or, whatever religion the healed person claims to believe in) today if such a bonafide miracle can be documented this day.
This question makes sense only if you presuppose that the point of life is to be happy.
Do you believe God physically heals occasionally?

How can God help me with my true porpoise? I mean, I could understand if he wanted to help out with the cats (the litter boxes need doing again), but I’ve honestly got no use for porpoise help.

So your cunt of a god actively wants suffering.
Now nice.
