What makes you think you're "god", and not just a madman in a tin foil hat?
monsterlego in reply to KitemanMar 16, 2012. 7:02 AM
Well for example.

Creating the universe

Making intelligent life

Saving peoples souls

etc. etc.

Kiteman in reply to Lithium RainDec 24, 2011. 11:15 AM
It was the wording of the OP - I don't know any religion that casts god as a door-to-door salesman.

Stop making a joke about god you all need to be repenting and asking him to save your soul from hell. He wakes you up in the morning he doesnt have to do that but he does..There's no love like his love.

vroom...vroom... in reply to IwantbigboomJun 2, 2012. 10:31 AM
You can know for sure if you are going to heaven or hell. Believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins, and he will save you from eternal death in hell.

Why has this forum topic gotten way out of hand?
isaacwilk says: Jan 12, 2012. 9:32 PM
Man some of you guys really dont assume anything at all do you? I would think it isn't that hard to understand what daredevil499 means.

What about:
If you could ask God, who knows everything in the universe, past present and future, one question, and were guaranteed an understandable and entirely correct answer, what would it be?

Bit lengthy for a title dont you think?

Well, yeah, but "spontaneous generation" has more of the ring of "spontaneous combustion," doesn't it?

This thread provided me with great entertainment.

It also gave me an excuse to slack off in statistics class.

Goals accomplished!

I would ask God where the largest supply of material treasure in the world was, and how to get there.
lemonie says: Dec 24, 2011. 1:29 AM
It doesn't work like that, your question is meaningless.

You probably want to ask something like "What's the question you'd most like to hear an answer that makes sense to?"

I'll guess that you've not being getting much sense out of God so far...?

Thrasym in reply to lemonieDec 29, 2011. 1:53 PM

how is it meaningless
lemonie in reply to daredevil499Dec 27, 2011. 1:05 AM
It is based upon the premise that we can't ask God any question that we like anyway. This is contradictory to religious teaching in general, and I hadn't thought that most people would need that explaining.

monsterlego in reply to lemonieDec 28, 2011. 4:37 PM

Yes.
Do you ever ask God questions or pray?

It's not what you put up there.
I asked you a question and that isn't an answer.

daredevil499 (author) in reply to lemonieDec 27, 2011. 5:01 PM
yes i do and i posted a simple question that you seem to have trouble with
lemonie in reply to daredevil499Dec 27, 2011. 5:05 PM
What is the "If God came to your house and said that you have one question you can ask him and he will answer it what would you ask" - question that you haven't asked God yet then?

L
daredevil499 (author) in reply to lemonieDec 27, 2011. 5:10 PM
i would ask this "When adam and eve sinned why didn't you squish'm and start over?" now are you happy
lemonie in reply to daredevil499Dec 27, 2011. 5:51 PM
OK, this is interesting, now we're talking about something.
Your classic Church response is that God gave people the knowledge & free-will that was previously exclusive to God, and as such effectively delegated responsibility*.
God did "squish people with things like fire & brimstone, and floods etc. But then God decided to hang-out with humans as this chap we know as Jesus.

What question do you want an an answer to?

L

(I'm always happy, and peaceful)

*The established church likes to pass the buck and tell you that you're bad because you've not exercised your free-will properly.
daredevil499 (author) in reply to lemonieDec 27, 2011. 6:14 PM
1. jesus didn't come to hangout with people. he came to save them.
2.what do you mean by "what question do you want an answer to" because I told you already.
lemonie in reply to daredevil499Dec 27, 2011. 6:39 PM
Jesus saved people by hanging-out with them; it's documented that he dined with e.g. tax-agents,
"When Adam and Eve sinned why didn't God squish 'em and start over?"(like Sodom, etc?) Well, if that happened God would have screwed-up by creating man badly, and we wouldn't be having this discussion; silly thought...

how many children did adam and eve have?

3
daredevil499 (author) in reply to monsterlegoDec 28, 2011. 4:44 PM
actually they had more. Genisis 5:4 says "After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and duaghters." If they didn't how would Seth and Cain multiply. I discovered this a few weeks ago. and thats the question I would ask God. to find out how many exactly.but good answer becuase that is the only 3 the bible mentions
monsterlego in reply to daredevil499Dec 28, 2011. 4:46 PM
i know one lived to be around 1,500 years old.
daredevil499 (author) in reply to monsterlegoDec 28, 2011. 4:52 PM
the oldest man ever was methusulah who lived 969 years

daredevil499 (author) in reply to lemonieDec 28, 2011. 2:09 PM
does it really matter if it's important. it's just a question!

and what is your question?
lemonie in reply to daredevil499Dec 29, 2011. 10:49 AM
how many children did adam and eve have?
I'd rather know which ones were/weren't "getting into bed" with Adam & Eve.

L
daredevil499 (author) in reply to lemonieDec 29, 2011. 12:07 PM
nobody knows how many.

and WHAT WOULD YOU ASK GOD
you can ask God anything at anytime but my idea is he will definitly answer this one question because he doesn't always answer.
lemonie in reply to daredevil499Dec 29, 2011. 2:36 PM
I told you my interest (I'd rather know which ones were/weren't "getting into bed" with Adam & Eve.)

If you don't get an answer, it's usually because the question isn't phrased in the right way. Or otherwise a person doesn't understand the answer, they maybe need to learn a bit by asking other questions first.

L
daredevil499 (author) in reply to lemonieDec 29, 2011. 4:59 PM
they probably had children with each other
caitlinsdad in reply to daredevil499Dec 29, 2011. 12:25 PM
Wouldn't you ask why he doesn't always answer?

If you could ask Lemonie one question what would it be?
