Assuming "God" to be the entity who has created everything in existance, past present and future.
You cannot even describe how many trillion trillion trillion (repeat for a trillion years) times more intelligent than man this entity must be.
Would you have done things a little differently? If so, how.

I would have picked smarter friends.

I think that we are here to perfect on our chosen areas that maybe we need to improve upon. I don't have any particular paranormal expert that I buy into exclusively, but I do believe that every hair on our head is numbered and that we are genuinely here for the experience. If I were God, I wouldn't change the hardships that help us learn and become better people, but I really don't think that the physical pain aspect of the human body is really a necessary part of the rest of the hardships that we face. Otherwise, I think the joys and pains that come and go with life are all there for a reason and none of which by coincidence. I think we should find the beautiful hidden gift in every bad situation and take all good for face value. God is all loving, but I think there are ample opportunities for us to grow and learn without all the blood and pain. Please consider going to thesecret.tv and watch the trailer for free. I bought the DVD and pleasantly surprised to find this. I have bought into this mentality for a long time and read many books on the subject, including Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch. I believe the website is ww.conversationswithgod.com. Interesting question. I hope you find some stimulating answers.

Yes as a matter of fact I would have,But of course I'm stupid and things would of got messed up long before now. But the more I read the Bible and meditate on His Word He enables me to see the pure logic behind His creation.And that's enough to blow my peanut brain.I couldn't have created anything with the low intelligence I have found that I posses.And Just like that sun that never explodes and never sends off a huge solar flare propelling it at us or out of orbit,He is extremely Impressive to say the least.May God Bless you.

To honestly answer the question, I think I need a basis to understand what he did and why? Inasmuch as I cannot fathom why God has done a smidgon of what He has,I'm not foolish enough to put my foot in my mouth.
I will say this, that if any man would be God, even for an hour, we all would be screwed.

Not allowed to dignify that with an answer for not wanting this to apply to me.
Mark 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation.

If I were God, I would have been much, much less patient and merciful. I would have been the kind of "zap 'em when they fail" deity. I'm glad I'm not, Him, folks like me probably wouldn't exist, much less those of the truly cruel and mean folks He has permitted to live. The God you've got, like it or not, is a far better deal than any of us filling in His shoes.

No. While it is easy for me to see pain and sufferring, as well useless nonsense done by people, my faith is in God, and in His place, I believe He knows far more and has done things for a reason, even if it is only to let people exercise free will. I just wish people would exercise a little more restraint and common sense when using that free will of theirs.

I wouldn't have allowed the idea of a "god" to exist. But, in doing so I would 1. have to exist as a "god" in order to have that kind of control, and 2. be infringing upon choice. So, I wouldn't do anything.

i don't think god is a person cause he wouldn't be a dinosaur when they ruled the earth. I beleive that god is a continuous energy source running the universe acc. to some laws, and if i was that energy source, i won't break those rules either.

Yeah, I would have scrapped Adam and Eve and started over with two people a little more worthy and respectful of My Commandments!
