God is everywhere, so they say, so god must be here on YA R&S, if such an entity exists. It is unlikely that god would just be lurking, god would want to explain its plan to us, and what we must do to execute it. This is an ideal forum for god to do it. So if god exists and is not asleep, it follows that god is one of us. Who might it be? Some rules: best answer will not go to a self-nominee; anyone with a screen name of god, holy spirit, Allah, Jehovah or Jesus; or anyone nominating me.

The problem, nubins, is that he did not do a very good job, and if you think he did, why not take a stab at answering my question on hell, nobody else knows the answer, maybe you do

I think God would have better things to do than answer our questions on Yahoo! Answers.

Well by your questio he does not exist to you and hey that is just fine. If God exists then why would he waste time on those who don't believe or even care about him. I think God just might let that person have enough rope and hang themselves.
But what if there is a God and a person truly seeks Him. I think that God would honor that person.
See why both with someone who will not believe, there are others that are willing to worry about disbelief.

Remember your religious mythology: Gods like to have disbelievers that they can roast for all eternity. The Bible and the Qur'an certainly both say this. So, if a god is hanging around on Y!A R&S then he'll be lurking and marking down us atheists for fuelling his infernal central heating system, not seeking to convert us all to religious belief.

The problem is that we tend to humanize God and attribute him our same needs and reactions.
All contradictions come from that basic mistake.
God is God. He needs nothing, or he wouldn't be God.
We can't speculate on what his plan is. Probably we couldn't understand it or even imagine what it is all about.
Our history as intelligent primates goes back to only a few thousand years and we pretend to understand God's plan?
Ridiculous!

Surah 112. Al-Ikhlas
1. Say: He is Allah, the One!
2. Allah, the eternally Besought of all!
3. He begetteth not nor was begotten.
4. And there is none comparable unto Him.

That's a flawed argument. It assumes that God MUST join YA for no reason other than his existence, and that he MUST answer just to prove his existence.
If people won't even pay attention to what God has already written, why should he give them more to ignore?

god is the one thats sending you food, water, clothing, joy, laughter, love and the 6 senses or less in some people's case.
whats bad in your in your life is from your very own self, and whats good in your life is what god is sending for you.
just because you cant see something doesnt mean that it doesnt exist.
peace

Why would God need to explain his plan and how to do his will. He reavels himself, his plan, and his will all in his word, the Bible, which he gave to us over 1900 years ago.

God does not need to be here, nor do I believe that he would come here...
God has people who can and do represent him in all things...
God speaks to his Prophets and His Prophets speak to the people.
