Really. God could've stopped all the drugs, violence, and hatred right now. Do you think he wants us to stop it on our own? I'm confused. o_0

God did not let these things happen, the Devil did.

God is love. If everyone remembered this then we wouldnt have all these problems. Maybe religion is so wrapped up in itself that it forgets this, but as long as individuals still remember there is hope.

Not good, not god at all. The war was over when Bush stood on the deck of that ship with his showboating self. I wish that he would have to go and fight or maybe one or both of his kids. I bet he would pull the troupes out then.

People are still dying in Iraq.  People are still slave in Drafur and so many are dying, People are still fighting over a piece of land in Israel, instead of honestly trying to find Peace between them. etc.   Is that enough evil, or do you want to know all of them..... Sadly it was not just 6 6 06.  Maybe we are stuck in time, and are unable to move.\n : - (

"He who is without sin, cast the first stone."  All of you should be ashamed for the hatred that you show towards indviduals, even though your reference to hate is only subtle.  If we asked for every president to apologize for their mistakes, where would we be?  I'm not condoning the man, but I cannot accept the answers you give as those from knowledgable, thinking, unbiased people.

I'm sure if God's up there somewhere, He's none to happy about the prospect of tidying up somebody else's mess! I think the believers had better get their act together and help Him out a bit, otherwise they might be in for a telling off...\n\n\n\n...and you know how angry God can get.

I agree! It seems as though things in our government have gotten out of hand. I don't know if it would take a good president or the united states keeping our noses to ourselves. Its like we are trying to fix the world and we can't even fix ourselves. I'm glad that I'm not the only one who thinks our America is in need of dire help. Good job for speaking out.

God caused it.  Look at Indonesia.  The largest majority Muslim country in the world.  He's just wiping out the morons is all.  First the Tsunami, now the earthquake.  I wonder what's next.

By the time I read all of the answers I realized that my thoughts had pretty much been covered. So kudos to all above me!\n\nBut I do want to emphasize what Snehal has proposed. One world........no religions. I agree with the answer that said that religions have basic similarities but that man has chosen to use their religion inappropriately. Wars have been fought merely over "interpretations." People have died for believing differently. Lives have been controlled because of those reading religion as a misinterpreted call for power. People are told what to think and what not to think and are condemned for differing opinions. \n\nI'm sure right now someone reading this is shaking their head thinking, "She has no clue what she is talking about." If it would stop with that, all would be fine. We are all entitled to have our own opinions. It is when someone will write me slamming me for my beliefs and finding  a way to avenge my thoughts by blasting me somewhere that we realize this is symbolic of our world's problems. It's not just because of religion of course. Religion is the scapegoat. Man can blame his judgements of others on the fact that they belong to "the wrong" religion. If we didn't have religions..........we would all have to face what we really are without the use of the scapegoat. \n\nGod? Well I believe we have a higher order. Does he want religions killing and disagreeing? *cough* Think about what He would write if he answered this question. :)

It also says that God is VERY angry.  The bible clearly describes how he brought plagues, floods, and firestorms to kill thousands of people.  He also had millions more killed in the Crusades, the Inquisition, and the Holocaust.  In the Bible people are supposed to be stoned for violating any one of the hundred biblical laws.  If the church got its way then very few of us would still be alive.  It is a good thing they lost the power to execute people at will without any justification.  I hear the church is still bitter about that fact.

Things are getting really f***ed up.  I mean, I'm not sure if I'm just paying attention more now than when I was a kid, but it seems like the world has gone completely mad in the last ten years.  I think either Christ will come again or humans will destroy each other.  Either way, the world is definately ending sooner than later.

It should stop any more immigration from THE GREAT ISLAM and send them all back to clear their countries of Fascist bullies. Why are American and European soldiers there and the Islamibads here? Should it not be the other way around. Toronto is sachurated with Muslim "refugees".Sick of it. Was bad enough when we only had Lutherans and Penticostals here.

I like very much the way you started: ALL RISE!\nAnd there is no legal system which is perfect!\nMoreover, though, I do not trust "god" and this is due to the fact that god never talks to anyone, except the leaders (which gives me suspicions that the leaders claim they were told by god! - what do you think?)\nFor example, whenever someone attacks another, in the last 16 centuries, they claim that god ordered them to do that! Last, but not without importance was the Bush claim for America's and her allies to Iraq!

God is everywhere and knows everything, so we don't have the power to "throw Him away".   I believe not enough people read God's Word to do their own research and are falling for the humanistic way of looking at things.  It has been a long, long time since I heard a preacher even preach about Heaven and Hell and the choices we make.  A lot of our churches are so politically correct, no real meat is taught to people who come hungry to hear God's Word.  If the Truth is taught, some people get offended but we will be held accountable for what is taught in our churches.

Never. To me, all the violence and death and destruction in this world today is totally inconsistent with the idea of a loving, benevolent God who apparently cares about his "children." It would make more sense to me if we had a deity that just isn't paying any attention or something. I cannot accept the fact that THIS is the best world that he can do.

I've been noticing that every time America hosts an anti-Israeli leader, a natural disaster hits America the same day. The more sin progresses; the more nature groans in response. I'm not surprised that things are progressing downward. As we legalize more sin, nature groans. Sooner or later, you'd think the world would see what's happening, but no....they close their blind eyes & says it's just coincidence.

The "drunk driver" is NOT doing God's work.\nGod gave us all our own free will. It is up to US to live as He would have us live.\nUnfortunately, many people choose to turn away from God.  They're selfish, weak, a non-believer, whatever the reason, they choose to please themselves and not God.\nPray for them. Please, everyone that comes to this site, please, pray for all.
