Really good question and no really good answers here. Why does god need to be worshipped, what does he care? \nSorry no answer but good question!

why would god have rules on himself?\n\nGod does as He wishes and no one can put restrictions on His power...at least that is what i believe... i mean, if you believe in God, who else is greater than Himself? no one, so only He controls what he does...therefore He doesn't need rules to control that which cannot be controlled in anyway

Sometimes there are no clear answers to a question. This is one of those questions where nobody can give an answer and support it with concrete evidence.\n\nPart of the reason these questions aren't easily answered is that God wants us to CHOOSE to love Him. He didn't want to make things so obvious that we instantly know He exists.

I love God (J) and I think why we shouldn't love him .... he give us a lots of gifts as life, mother, world, and so on although we are not doing what he command us. He is the most kind and Greatest..... Love God and obey the holy God ......

God reveals himself all the time.  Maybe GOD is the UNIVERSE.  That's kinda how I see it.... to put it simply.

God is Love, he doesn't send any soul to "Hell", we are a part of him. He does not make mistakes and abandon his "original" plan and this earth WILL be paradise one day.

GOD loves those people. \n\nThe thing is, God 'gets' the human race, way more than we 'get' ourselves. And boy, does it make Him sad that so many are missing out on the treasure of trusting and believing Him!\n\nProblem for us is, we have to believe that He IS, in order to be saved. \n\nAsk for proof. Ask for faith.\n\nIt's a whole other world when you KNOW it.

Why do you think he hasn't?  They are alone in the midst of the Islamic world which has sworn to drive them into the sea.  They are still there decades later.  Because... , well, there are hundreds of "causes" you could name, but who says God is not behind it all?  We'll see.  I'm not Christian, just exploring the possibilities.

It is *mankind* that portrays God as angry and threatening.  He has no reason to be angry or to threaten.  He has left us to our own devices to choose and suffer the consequences of a bad decision so we will learn.  When we make bad decisions, and suffer because of it, many blame God.  It's just silly!

The same way that you believe it when someone tells you that they love you. You cant acutally see love, but you have faith and trust, and through actions...even tho God absolutely does not have to show us in actions,....he does. He has obviously blessed you if you have the ablity to ask these questions, and if you have a computer and if you are able to ask these questions....there are many times that you will feel distant...but he is ALWAYS there

Easy, he can't.\n\nBut that is not too difficult to see once you realize that there is no God in the first place.\n\nThere are other contradictions as well. For example, God is supposed to be omniscient (all-knowing) as well as omnipotent. So if He knows everything He knows the future. So He knows what He will do in the future. So how can He be omnipotent if He can't do something other than what He knows He will do. He is not powerful enough to overcome His own foreknowledge.\n\nGod is supposed to be omnibenevolent, all-loving (in my opinion the weakest of all Christian characterizations of God). If so, God is not powerful enough to control His own emotions. He can't "not love" something.

for man to think that he is the only inteligent piece of work by God is underestimating the power and soverneity of God. In the universe as vast as ours and with the earth as a small dot in it, i think to think we are alone is quite a selfish thought. definately there must be aliens. On earth itself , there are millions of life form, so why would God forget about the rest of universe !\ni think they have to be deadly if they need to survive facing man...the deadliest

if he has no consciousness how does he create everything you see around you?\nThat doesn't make much sense. Perhaps he has a consciousness but not in the sense of it being in our interests. \nLike for example we think the whole idea of God revolves around us humans. Perhaps it isn't so shallow and larger than that.\nThen again, if what you said were to be true, I suppose we would be in big trouble.

I believe that he is jealous for our attention.  that is why we are not supposed to have any idols (one of the contexts that this is used Deut. 5:9)  He doesn't want anything to keep us away from Him because he sees how much pain it causes if we do stay away.

God`s Love exists in every cell of mankind , Our busy and dirty life does not let us to feel the holy portions of our existence, just when the clouds disappear and he him self has a look at us , we can deeply feel him! \nLike a smooth breath!\n"we are from him and we will return to him "

Because it says so in the Bible and if he didn't care he would not offer us the gift of everlasting life. Also he gave his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ so that our sins will be forgiven. If you read your Bible you would know the answers to all these questions you ask. By the way, what makes you think God doesn't care?
