Do you all really think that just because God did not reach out to you, He reaches out to no one?
Universe revolve around you much?

Maybe without those things I would think as you do. But at the same time you are without those things because you did not ever A/S/K for them either.

To me, personally, that is religion's greatest marketing strength. It's their ultimate product which they are selling to you.
One which you yourself as a customer cannot even prove you haven't received!!!
Needing blind faith to believe in the absurd or extraordinary isn't just recommended, it's mandatory!
On one side of the fence people say what you do, and on the other people say the opposite.. the problem with a proud person is you do not see the fence you do not see the division God has placed between us. Then a proud person wrongly assumes that because God does not speak to me, he can not speak to anyone.
That make people who claim that he does, stupid or a liar...
2000 years of stupid liars... when in every single other case of false religion has never lasted longer than the society that it originates from..
OR... What if those who claim to have seen God simply have, and you and those like you are indeed simply on the outs?
