Re: Controversal Question about Relgion 'pray for this, pray for that'
Posted by Sassyz75
I don't believe God makes bad or good things happen- I really don't think s/he's that involved in our daily lives.
When people start praying or doing good deeds just to get into heaven, well.. that's sort of messed up. It should be unconditional and they should never be quantitfied.... the same with 'bad' things
These too statements I agree with.
I do however put full blame on god for the good and the bad. One can not be without the other. I am called by others an 'agnostic' christian. Im not atheist as I believe in something. I was raised to believe in christ.. brainwashed if you will, since that is what blind faith is. So I am considered Christian.
I just find it awkward that people always ask God for miracles and believe that God will somehow hear them and say 'gee those down there really believe and really prayed hard so I'll pay attention' If there were true then it would reall F-up my point of view of God. It would make him ultimately evil as he/she/it would then be taking sides. Playing favorites. Not just from those who believe and those who don't but from those who pray for things which have a set destiny and from those who just accept his overall plan.
Therefore I have, as I said, an open dialog. I really think that God has a wicked sense of humor and I really wish I could sit down and with and say 'look, A-hole, stop f-ing with me and give me a break, just a small one or at least stop laughing at me.' I don't find that sacraligious I find it my duty as a believer to question him. I also find it my duty to only question that which affects me personally since the rest of the world is his domain. No matter how much it may directly effect me. It's his plan. Who am *I* to say he doesnt know what he's doing??
Wonder if this will be locked by LIWeddings for being too controversal?
