Seems he could pop in for 5 minutes today and correct all the confusion in the world and save millions of lives .
Like tell the terrorists that blowing themselves up is not the way to heaven . That anyone with an empty room is going to hell as long as one homeless person is left on the streets .
God needs to drop in and set the record straight .
Like are wars ok . Was forced conversion of millions of american natives right when so many were killed for not converting .
If he cared for real he would set the record straight .
to much confussion and 20 religions with many different paths to heaven . Which one is right ?

I thought you knew the path to heaven... Where is your faith now?

God is always showing Himself, Sir.
Pity is that we fail to see Him because we are too busy looking at all the bad things around us.
Religion has always been a problem because they were written by men who believed [some may say - deluded] themsleves that they were writing the Words of God.
Take the countless millions that were massacred by the Muslims in the "spreading of the True Faith"; or the infamous "Spanish Inquisition" of Torquemada; or the atrocities we hear about in the Far East and so on.
Why single out Americans for the "extermination of the Native Americans" which, incidentally, is a myth; because a lot of tribes were still flourishing and then got assimilated in the mixing of bloods. You might be surprised to know that there are yet, some pure blooded Native Americans in USA.
How can you expect the dumb terrorist to listen to God, while he is stupidly getting his brain washed by the Imam or whatever you call them? Otherwise, don't you think he'd have the common sense to tell the guy - "If this is truly the path to Heaven, here, let me strap this on you and you go do it!"
Your statement of "Wars for conversion" of Native Americans shows how little you know of American History, Sir.
Trust me when I say this, God has always been showing Hinself and Speaking with us.
It's just that we've been looking at and listening to the wrong things at that time.
Have a nice day.

Sweetheart, God does show himself, every day, but he has also given us free will and we can choose the path He has set out for us, or we can let worldly things like greed, avarice, sloth, etc to take over our lives. Unfortunately, although he could correct all the confusion, He is letting us make our own mistakes and decisions. It is human beings who are the ones causing the chaos, not God.
God is here, though, with us and suffering with us at the plight of the world. Because Jesus lived as a man, and experienced all of our emotions, God does know how we feel and why we act. It is ultimately up to us, though, to do the right thing. God always does the right thing.
Does this help? I hope so --
PS I found some webpages that go into this further if you are interested. Good luck :)

Any thing you see in this world wrong is from mankind, we as people are not fear with others, God got thing to do with it. yes he can fix all that , but God wants to see, how much wrong mankind can do, and then in judgement day will straight ever little thing out. You have to feel God or (Allah) you can just see God like you feel pain, but Not see the pain. I'm Muslim In the Quran God say " Jewish, Christians and Muslims, I'm the one to judge the the in Judgement day" so as people should not judge other people and we should leave that to God.
I think you need to do some reading, to understand what religioun is right. I can set here I tell u Islam is the best religion, but that not right you need to read about all three of them.

God has shown himself not physically but through his word the bible. If a person reads God's word and meditate on it he'll see why God has - allowed not caused - the problems in this world. Besides the bible describes the earth as God's footstool so he's too great to come down to this earth. Besides the true religion is recognised by its fruit, i.e how it adheres to the principles set out by God. But soon he'll end all these wicked acts. God has promised and it will surely come to pass.

Because of free will and because many people don't really want to see Him, Why? Because they won't resist that what they been doing is wrong, this is including the ones who are always screaming "I love God" God in your name I pray" etc, etc. You are right here are many religions, but to be save you don't need a religion, you just need faith in God and all the other things will be attached. Jesus didn't come to talk about religions he came to talk to us about God and the way to get him.

You have to unerstand that God is love and not a God of love. he is love personified (1 John 4:16). One of the things God did to demonstrate his love for us is to give man a self-will. If he was not a God of love then he would have not given us a choice to choose from what is good or not good. I believe that if God came down today to set things tarught as you said, he will be violating his persona as a Godof love thereby becoming a dictator which is definately not love. Besides, he already made all things available to us (1 corinthinas 3 : 22).
Since God has given us a self-will, then he most have also given us an ability to cause our will (desire ) to be activated or to coe to pass. Then why does it not happen? Because alot of people are ignorant of this truth. As children people tend to not know how much bigger they are just like child screaming at the sight of doll that he/she thinks has scary eyes.(lol).
You have to try to look at te bright side of life. there have been people who where down striken, but yet came out victorious because they had a self-will and a desire to change. One change I know is inevitable is the change that hapens frm within when you give your heart to Jesus Christ. It is an awesome experience and I will encorage you to do so.
God bless

The only way to heaven is through jesus christ. You have to choose today who you will serve. Im not trying to preach to you, but god does love us. The mere fack that you are breathing is a sign that he loves you. Its in the bible that the war is gonna happen because of the sin in the world. Jesus loves all that comes to him. Your answer lies in your relationship with God. Do you have a relationship?

Yes He did, He show up as J.C 2000yrs ago. Also 2000 yrs for God could mean only 2 days.

"No denomination has nailed it yet, because they're all too self righteous to realize it doesn't matter what u have faith in~ as long as u have faith. Your hearts are in the right places but your brains have to wake up!"-Dogma
God doesn't prove Himself to us because He wants us to believe without seeing. For a silly movie like Dogma, it sure did have a lot of interesting points & theories. He does care, noone loves us as much as the Lord.:o]
