I heard a question a little while ago and it got me thinking. The question was 'If you could ask god one question, what would it be?'. Now this question is deceptively simple, because 1. you are allowed to ask only one question and 2. once you had asked your question you would not get a second chance. Think about it, if you got a chance to ask a question of someone who knew everything, only one question ever, and you asked a stupid question you would have to live the rest of your life wondering what you could have found out, what secrets you could have known.

So my question is, If you could ask god only one question ever, with no limits on what subjects or secrets could be the topic, what would be your question?

P.S.
For any atheist or person who does not believe in a single deity, please replace god with any other concept you wish. PLEASE DO NOT say that you do not believe in god so therefore you can't answer, you will only waste everyone’s time and your answer will not be considered.

Thanks.

I have chosen to write a philosophy paper on Buddhism and I need to include the countries and political systems that use it. I need your help to find a reliable website that gives me that information. Please leave me a link.

Thanks

When I was little, I learned that God can do anything that there's nothing he can't do.

I've heard of stories of physically handicapped people being cured by a miracle (such as a paralyzed man could walk or move his body again). So why wouldn't God cure those with severe mental disability (that can't take care of themselves)?

I'm looking for serious anwers. So I don't want to see any rude answers. If you tend to give me any answer that's rude or a joke, please leave. If any of you are Christians, please help me out and answer my questions.

I have heard that the phrase "good luck" is really not Christian.

I'm always amazed when someone who professes to be a Christian says to the asker, "God bless and good luck."

These two things--God's blessing and superstitious luck--do not interrelate.

From wikipedia article:
"Luck is a form of superstition which is interpreted differently by different individuals." {http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luck}

I perceive "luck" as a term of superstition and that it does not correlate with an expression of faith in Jesus.

What do you think?

Okay so this is my freshman year in college (aka no job for 3+ months now) and I need gifts for my family and girlfriend without breaking my bank.

1. My dad is 48 I always have trouble trying to find him something every year because I never know what to get him. His main hobby is running, he runs like 6 miles a day but he has about 50 pairs of shoes. A bunch of running shirts, etc. So I am really lost on what to get him. He never makes any mention of anything he wants, please help.

2. My mother is the same age and every year just by shopping around the department stores I find something, but this year I won't really have a lot of time to do that. Last year I got her a griddle, the year before that I got her a scanner, so its kinda easy to please her but I need something not so expensive.

3. My grandparents, I usually get them a joint gift, but I can get them something separate if its a good idea. My grandpa is sick a lot now and they can't go out much so sometimes i get them movies

I never heard this before until someone mentioned how they couldn't wait for it, then someone else entirely asked me if I had a good recipe for my dinners, and of course, never heard of it! OUr family saves mac and cheese for the summer BBQ Holidays like Memorial Day and July 4th! So who has this side dish during Thanksgiving?!?

I live in American Samoa, and our island happens to have a large number of Indians. Not too much but a lot. I want a business selling Indian needs. Needs that are in India but not here. For ex: certain curry ingredients. I plan on having a business for them and I would like to know what they would want/need the most.
