I'd ask an All knowing being (God, angel, whatever you like) who thought up 5 lines and 4 spaces with only 7 notes to make a scale? (This relates to music)

You can fly, Just not on earth.

But I can answer this question for you, because of gravity

'What is the reason for your complete lack of contact with any human on the planet for over 1800 years?'


What makes you think God hasn't had contact with a single human soul on this planet since that time? I don't think the problem is lack of contact, it's lack of belief.

I just find his complete absense slightly odd is all.
If i were god, i would be all over this place making sure people were doing what i told them to do. It seems strange that he'd be so careless as to what his creations are up too. So i'd ask him why he's been gone for so long. I mean i know he's busy, but come on.
[right][snapback]515615[/snapback][/right]

Are you grown and moved out of your parents house? Do they come over daily and check up on you to make sure you are doing everything correct? Or do they let you live your own life?
HowdyDoo
I think God has probably answered the "great" questions we have. You just need to know where to look to find the answers.

I would just want to know if I will finally be thin when I get to heaven.

My question to the Big Guy...hmm...

Was Adam really a human? Or was he the first organism on this "Rock"?

The truth...
After all of the fighting and bickering over it, it would be refreshing to "know" the truth about it right from his/hers/its mouth (granted he/she/it had one  )



Actually, that too has already been ansered. Adam was created as a second angel. Mortaility from this great Tree of Knowledge which grants but death, doomed him and the rest of his descendants to mortality.

"Why when something bad happens its always blamed on you, and whenever something good happens its always "Yea for me". Why can't people realise thats just life sometimes?"

LBD, good point. God is our father, our parent, our creator.... he only puts in our paths what we need to grow as people... that is what he does.. it is said in the bible that the worst sin of all is turning your back on God.. the first commandment is to have no other Gods, right?

If I was god.
Being omnipotent (Knowing all) Adam and Eve would not have been tempted in the garden, The great flood, tsunami all the mass killings (By your God) would not have happened. The pain and suffering....Want me to continue with the list? I would not have left my "Great experiment" alone for so long.

Its not a fair question honestly... I was hoping you would say "I dont know"... Cause honestly how can we know what its like to be God?

If Adam and Eve were never tempted life for us would not be what it is today... The great Flood, we have talked mnay times about that, not even going to touch it... lol and the tsunami, well natural disasters happen, life certainly isn't perfect...

are you saying zandore, that if ou were god, that life would be perfect?
Well I have never experienced that before, I am sure its great, but I think about it in a different light... I have said before, what would good be without bad? Do we not enjoy and appriciate the good times more because of the bad times?

God allowed Adam and Eve to be tempted, just as he allows us to be tempted, it shows faith....
God made the flood because of the evil or imorality of the world...
Pain and suffering is created by man-- drugs, poverty, MONEY, hate, war, poaching, need I go on?

Perhaps God seems cruel to allow such atrocitys to happen to his creation because He knows that our earthly existence is but a few seconds of our total existence.

Jealous/vengeful/angry/full of wrath........
Super Pancake
O.K. LBD, The Bible say all men with knowledge of good and evil sin. There seems to be conflicting arguments some christians say men are tempted to sin others say it's free will some say it's both. I suppose you believe it's free will correct me if I'm wrong, then this next question of mine would be unnecessary to your belief.

If this is so all men commit sin with knowledge of good and evil, then let's say people do get in heaven it's not like they would forget what evil is. They would still be able to cause sin. Therefor would it be possible that evil will exist in heaven?
zandore
Yes LBD that sounds like a good question. hmm.gif

zandore... God is angry, full of wrath, and vengeful, but righteously so, he punished those that persecuted jesus, he destroyed those that were blasphemous, and he gets mad when we turn our backs on HIM, the one that created US!!!
but as for the evil that has happened in His name, that is mans doing.
