Ask the Christian

[Welsh cake]

WC: The answer to all of the questions you pose to me: look in the mirror.

Right... so why does god love me? What about me is there to love when I don't want to be loved by said deity (assuming he is real)?

And please give a legitimate answer this time, not another "it is in his nature" response, because that alone doesn't tell me a thing about his character or personality.

You need to first demonstrate god is a sane loving being rather than some old imaginary guy with a obsessive–compulsive personality disorder (other illnesses your god concept has can be explored in another thread if you wish).

Second, you must show why he loves people, i.e. what he sees in people that he wants to cherish and adore. The answer cannot be because it's his nature or he created us, because then he's admiring his own accomplishments and power and that's a narcissistic personality disorder.

And thirdly you must go on to explain why this omni-benevolent god is not in my life, interacting with me and actually wanting to pursue a relationship with me. Does he love me enough to talk directly to me or not? You'd think a god that loved me -as much as you claim- would at least convey this in a dream or an email, or something dammit!
