Why Your God?

Why, and what's the reasons you're so fond of it?

Quote:It can grant wishes.

I have a Omnipotent God who doesn't grant wishes, your entity sounds lame.

Quote:It's never granted me any, but I just know it does. I've seen other people who've had their wishes granted.

Like I said above, "lame entity." How do you know it has granted others wishes or that it's even capable of such a thing.

Quote:I believe it exists and is just waiting for me to find it... somehow... I could really use a map... but hey, you gotta have faith.

My God doesn't expect me to find Him, He called me and gave me a road map before hand. He gave me some understanding and I trusted Him, and He taught me how to understand His road map.

Quote:Other uber entities that people talk about aren't so awesome, so I don't think they're real. Mine must be.

Like I said above your entity is lame, my God is awesome, full of love and grace, forgiving and faithful, a true friend. Why do you know so little about your entity... oh yeah your entity is lame, sorry I almost forgot.

Quote:This Universe was the wish it granted itself. Pretty awesome, huh?

Could not be, my God created because it was His will, His will over rules all else, the wish of your lame entity was a delusion, you should really check out my God, He is great.

Quote:I just can't wait for my turn at getting my wish... sadly, some people say that the wish is only granted after you're dead. A minor inconvenience, I'm sure.

My God provides for my needs, so I really need not wish, thankfully. My God provides in this life and the next, again you should check Him out.

Quote:Until then, I just need to believe that the entity is there. I don't know its name... maybe I'll wish for infinite knowledge. That should take care of all the things I'm ignorant of. yes... god idea.

I do not have to believe any longer about the reality of my God, He has shown Himself to me many times. I do not need infinite wisdom to know my God or His name. I wouldn't want infinite wisdom, that comes with a responsibility that could only be handled by one who is omnipotent and omnipresent, which my God is, so it's good He is omniscient.

Quote:I've always wished for the ability to heal any for of sickness from the living... but now I have a much nobler wish... self cultivation.... maybe that'll get granted before death.

Become a doctor, it takes a bit of work to accomplish, it's better than wishing. You may some time after death become cultivated into a nice garden or you could be just a bunch of weeds.

Quote:I can't say much more about this entity, except that it does grant any wish you desire... and that is a very powerful thing to look forward to, don't you think?

By your own admission it hasn't granted you any wishes, so it isn't able to grant wishes as you say, so as I see it by your admission there's nothing to look forward to. You haven't even shown your entity knows who you are because you have to find it, lame entity.

Quote:Perhaps, someday, someone will write a book about it... We're waiting for it to grant us the wisdom of the words to put down in writing.
This post is one of the most comprehensive essays on it. I hope you enjoyed it.

The essay is as lame as the entity is, it hasn't granted you a wish, you haven't shown it has granted anyone a wish. An entity that would grant just any wish would have no responsibility for the ones it grants wishes to. The trouble that comes with the wish would be all your's while the entity sets back and watches you suffer the consequences, without the slightest bit of care or comfort. Lame entity.

Quote:Follow the wish giving entity. Believe it's there and you'll get your wish, even if only after death.

No thanks, my God offers so much more than your lame entity, seeing to my needs in this life and giving rewards in the next.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
