OK Christians. your chance. Convince me of God.

Why is pain a necessary process of birth? If humans are designed, this is a design flaw.

Also, it's a dodge of the question.

Quote:Why? Because man changes it to suit his own righteousness, and if God were to chase down and meet man's righteousness everytime it change then He would not be worthy of worship. In that senerio Man would be the supreme beings and God the servant.

If God were really the being of perfect morality you seem to believe, he should never need to chase down the morals of such inferior beings as we.

The only god worthy of worship would be one who does not do things people of any morality could ever look down upon as evil.

Quote:Suffering comes to us all like it or not, when our number is called we can suffer with or without God. I choose to suffer for purpose and mean. However if you wish to deprive you and your family of that, then that desision is on you.

I am neither a sadist nor a masochist. I suffer only when no alternative to suffering is available, and only until one is.

Quote:What you and your group fails to understand is that this world and all that happens in it is in our charge in our care. We are responsiable for this realm. Meaning you are in the role of first responder not God. if you see a need and do nothing then all your 'judgement' applies to you. It like if you were to have a child and neglect him because Child services mission statement includes the protection of Children. Child services is not meant to be the primary source of care for all children. Child services holds neglegent parents accountable for their actions.

That is all entirely beside the point. My judgement may totally apply to me, or anybody else. The point is that we are not gods.

What you fail to understand is that God made all this suffering possible and, even though he should have the ability to prevent all suffering, ever, he chooses not to. Why? Because he feels like it. Perhaps he enjoys it. Perhaps he just can't be bothered.

It seems to me that you want God to be perfect, and yet equivocate his bad behavior with the bad behaviors of allegedly inferior beings, as if that makes it okay or something. It's as if you're saying that, since we allow three year olds to throw temper tantrums in public, we should not complain when a thirty year old does it.

Quote:..And you don't see the self righteous hyprocrisy in that? "God do as I say not as I do!"

There is no hypocrisy in demanding higher moral standards from a being who claims to be the source of all morals as compared to a person who is expected to follow them.
