One question

Posted on 04/09/2009 10:43:46 PM PDT by djf

Freepers are just about the most inventive group of folks I've been involved with.

Also, the most curious.

So I though I would toss this out to see what's on our collective minds.

If you had ONE QUESTION, just one, that you could ask of God (or whatever higher power you believe in), what would it be?

I'll ping a gold star to whoever comes up with mine first!

Could G-d make a rock so big that even He couldn’t lift it?

Seriously, now - go visit YouTube and look up the O’Bama vs. Alan Keyes debate: Keyes-Obama debate 2 (Christianity). Listen to Keyes’ answer at 1:50.

I think America is downgrading, johnthebaptistmoore, but I think the world as a whole is moving towards the Messiah. I do believe we have more Christians now than at any time in history.

How can he not answer? lol! I am not religious but Islam is the biggest con going and brings nothing but pain and misery to the world. Founded by a double talking child rapist, that is why I ask.

Why did You allow Adam to fall? Which is the freewill question, I guess.

What, really, is “goodness”? Is the definition of “good” whatever pleases You?

Then I would ask, “What can people do to bring the most goodness into the world, and remove or at least neutralize the most evil?”

Well, I for one has never thought that there was “One True Religion”, and anybody who believes something slightly different is barred from salvation forever.

But I have serious doubts about any kind of religion that emphasizes killing people just because they don’t believe what you believe. That’s not a religion, it’s a militaristic cult.

IMHO, anyways.

Agreed.

And God said,

“Is there intelligent life somewhere else in the universe?”

OHHHH! I think that was the one me and my kids were talking about. (Are UFO’s real, etc.)

“If it’s your will, what can I do to help make the U.S.A a better place for future generations?”

Disclaimer:
This is really really hard...normally I would take days revising, altering and rethinking the best question. Suffice it to say I’m not sure that would be the right question to ask him, but it’s the first one that I thought of.

I think it is in Psalms where David says something like “and what are we that you have made us higher than the angels” or something like that.

Or - watch “It’s a Wonderful Life”! ;)
