Ok if not guilty about internet, how about food, shelter,clothes and education?
If your answer is religious, how can that make a just and fair God? The ones that got a rotten deal from him, do they have the right to be angry and renounce him? Would anybody blame them?

If you all are thankful that God has blessed you as you say with all of that, why has he blessed LESS the starving children of Somalia, or Darfur....? that's what I want to know... and if he works in mysterious ways, well it still ain't fair for some!

ARGGHH people! I'm not blaming God, I'm saying he is not there!! If he was the wonderful God that you claim him to be, all of that wouldn't happen! There's no one watching over us or he's a very selective protector.....

I don't feel guilty for anything I have because I've been through a lot in life and know that nobody is immune from tragedy. I am just grateful for everything I have (parents, brother, friends, shelter, food) and try to help others whenever I can.
I know what you mean, though. The guy at work once said, "God is looking after me" when he got extra hours for the week. That just drove me crazy! As if God has time to look after him and ignore the starving children! Every time he says anything like that, I always make smart remark like that.

i dont feel guilty. the people in the past obviously had their own kind of entertainment, etc. and also while they do not have ready access to the world like us, they had their own ways and were comfortable with it.
why want to think about that?
And, God doesnt give rotten deals. He only wants the best for us.
If it wasn't for God you wouldn't even have the brains to post questions in Yahoo Answers let alone develop technology, etc.
Look at the bigger picture. Dont just try to blame God for everything.

Your logic is flawed.
No, I do not feel guilty that I can use the internet and others cannot. I do not feel guilty that I have a home, and food, a car, and a dog, and a means to better myself. I do not need to feel guilty to give alms and charity to others. Furthermore, it rains on the rich just as much as it does on the poor, does that mean that God is an unjust being... No. It means bad things happen to people everywhere. It does no good to blame God when famine happens, when the cow's milk goes dry, or your home gets blown away by a huricaine, after all, God is not a resepecter of persons. He does not hold one person in greater esteem than another, and bad things happen to good people no matter if they believe in Him or not.

Nope! GOD put me here at HIS PERFECT timing.
HE also blessed me with Food, shelter, clothes and education.
My answer is not religious.
I DON'T BLAME HIM for any of my ROTTON DEALS....HE didn't give me ANY ROTTON deals. I just stumbled and fell a lot thinking that I needed SOMEONE to blame when I should be blaming me or someone else, But NEVER GOD!

Since the dawn of man, beginning in the Garden of Eden, not everyone on the earth has gotten the same "deal".
It has nothing to do with God being "fair and just". It has to do with geography, timing, weather, politics, etc., etc., etc..

God do not make that stuff happen it is not his fault!
If God didn't let bad people be bad
He would be like the devil not letting good people be good
THINGS HAPPEN!
Understand
