But if he is all powerful, he should stop those things. If he doesn't, but can, that is so, so, so messed up.
Are you religious?

But you said that god has the power to force people to follow him!?!
So he doesn't then does he?

If you are really interested in answers, read this article.

You just dont get it dailyskin. God is the allmighty ruler, he has the right to create and destroy, and do what he sees fit with his creations. If he wants to play games with his creations he will. Deal with it, love him or perish in the eternal flames of hell. Next topic!

Guys, I'm happy to answer questions, as long as you are genuinely interested in me giving answers. If you are only trying to prove me wrong, I will stop now.

"For example, a brick may break loose from the top of a high building and strike a pedestrian. Is God to blame? No. It was an unplanned and unforeseen occurrence. The same may often be said when sickness invades a household or sudden death leaves behind orphans and widows."
Um. But God is supposed to be Omnipotent and Omnipresent. So what kinda dodgy god didn't see an accident waiting to happen? What kind of God just fails to notice that some kiddies are being orphaned? Kids are told "God loves every person. He hears your prayers". Then the kid wonders why God is letting his priest rape him every week...

As I said - I studied religion for many years. I am genuinely interested in the responses. But the reasoning is often so, so flawed that I can't understand how people believe it?

It's Satan's ambition to turn people against God. One of his major weapons is making god out to be useless or even decremental to human society. He's doing a pretty good job!

Yes I am interested, Im not trying to convert you or anything, just having a good debate.
So you cant answer my question?
(don't take that offensively)
Agreed

I think the reason for that is the fact that there are so many different religions, teaching so many different things, all claiming to represent one God.
I most certainly agree with you when you say that the reasoning is often flawed in many religions. However, I don't think that is the case with mine.
