Do you wish God was real?

[Catholic_Lady]

After some drama a few days ago, I've decided not to answer questions asked to me in the form of condescending remarks. :-)

If you have genuine interest in knowing my views, I will discuss it with you, otherwise it's just a waste of both our times.

So if you had the choice would you wish for one of the alternative gods being proposed by members here or stick with your current god of the bible?

Hey I appreciate it. Thank you. :-)

I would keep the Christian God.

I believe God gave us free will and allows nature to take it's coarse.

A God that talks to us, gives us whatever we ask/want, and immediately paralizes anyone who is about to do something hurtful, sounds good in theory, but I think it would open up a whole can of worms.

First of all, I can see people getting terribly spoiled, always asking for more and more, never being satisfied, and deeply resenting God when they did not get what they want. Second, I think physically stopping people from doing anything that He does not approve of would cause more harm than good. We would just be like children, always confined to daddy's rules and never being able to grow and learn from our mistakes, etc. Third, having free will means the world is what we make it to a certain extent. A lot of the human suffering is due to corruption of man and we have no one to blame for that but ourselves.
