Many verses from the Quran quite describe the situation of punishment:
Quote:Sura 10, The Quran:
https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/index.php?l=en#...rans=en_sh
( 96 ) Indeed, those upon whom the word of your Lord has come into effect will not believe,
( 97 ) Even if every sign should come to them, until they see the painful punishment.
also
Quote:Sura 26, The Quran:
https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/index.php?l=en#...rans=en_sh
( 200 ) Thus have We inserted disbelief into the hearts of the criminals.
( 201 ) They will not believe in it until they see the painful punishment.
( 202 ) And it will come to them suddenly while they perceive [it] not.
( 203 ) And they will say, "May we be reprieved?"
( 204 ) So for Our punishment are they impatient?
But acting a fool as if non-belief didn't cause the death of Millions, locked the world in an age of deterrence, and caused hunger and slavery to an evil capitalistic system favoring the strong who spilled more blood than we can imagine.
As if humanity didn't sin to deserve such a Godly mosquito sized sting to bring the rotten economics of this world collapsing.
But who knows? maybe the mercy of God -that covers everything- covers humanity like it always did and we see Coronavirus vanish.
But guilty? oh yes humanity is guilty.

But why would I or anyone else care what such a bigoted book like Koran has to say? After all it was written by primitive bigots.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

God did not bring Corona on us it already existed in nature. The stupidity of a blind government caused this a government that needs to be punished by the rest of the world. Now it could be that God is using this against that government because they kill millions to hold onto power, you might say this is a self inflicted wound by a government that is not just blind but totally dishonest and cares nothing about life outside of itself.

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.

Then why did the murder hornets invade along side the fire ants, huh?
I say it's because God realised they'd double booked the African locust plague and the murder hornets were the best substitute they could get on short notice.
Cheers.

This is going to be another source of angst and radicalization for you Winter, clearly. The world is going to plug along like it always does after a pandemic, resume where it left off, no significant changes. The great and powerful wizard of allah strikes out again. Hopefully that's not the final straw for you, lol.

You'd think with all his power he'd be a more focused, less indiscriminate killer.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

He's busy counting the hairs on everyone's head. Much too busy to put his focus elsewhere.

Nope, not really.
The current pandemic seems to be 'Par for the course' given said deity's track record.
Y'know, the whole "Smite 'em all. Let deity sort 'em out."
Jus' sayin'.
Not at work.

Hemerrhoids.
Your god created hemerrhoids.
That makes sense.
They do say that he created man in his own image, and he IS a flaming asshole.

Welcome back, Godscreated; I don't think I've seen a post from you in a while.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
