Or, aren't they praying for the end of genocide? Perhaps they're too busy praying about Aunt Martha's surgery....

Hundreds of millions prayed for this god creature to stop Hitler before he caused 30+ million to die during WWII and he did NOTHING. A simple little blood clot would have done the trick, say in 1934, but NOOOOOO. If this god creature of could turn a good woman into a pillar of salt for looking over her shoulder, why couldn't he answer the prayers to end evil. Either this god is heartless, powerless, both, or does not exist at all.

God answers all prayer. God is Good. Your question assumes he is not. That makes your question in conflict with the assumption. That makes it a logical fallacy.
Additionally, you assume that life on this earth is all there is. If there is an eternal existence then the answer might be a very different answer. If God is good, and he is, then there is a reason though you may not understand it.
Interesting that you know sooooooooooooooo much and can see into the future for every human being and know the hearts and thoughts of everyone for all time and space so well that you can declare something to be good or not.

God didnt make robots He/she gave us free will. People cause genocide.
I know GOd is love. When we act with love and compasion genocide does not happen. WHen we dont care at all Genocide happens.
When people dont care where there food comes from when they dont care or vote to stop Govenrments that protect big business when Multinational companies undercut and create a situtaion where the poor cannot compete on the market for there goods People starve when people starve people they will listen to men Like Hitler.
So every time we buy Coka Cola or a nestle product Or dont look at the label WE cause genocide. We dont need to blame God We just need to look in the mirror.
Do you care? God needs our help. God needs us to care. God needs US to act.
Debating the existance of God does not help God. It does not help the baby who is 10 feet from a vulture waiting for its meal to die right now in africa.
It seems the ONLY people who do care come from temples mosks and churches there the ones digging wells there the ones fighitng for the poor.
Give me the name of an athiest charity I would like to know if they exist.

First, God gave everyone free will as an act of love. Second, if someone dies at the hands of someone else that person who perished will most likely enter their spiritual home, heaven. Third, is this too difficult to understand that no evil will succeed with the eternal life? Please, this is a simple concept that even a child can understand. Just because you cannot see the spiritual world does not mean it does not exist!

I pray everyday and ask God to touch the lives of those who do these horrible things. However, you need to understand that free agency is involved here. God will not stand in the way of us making our own choices. Yes, all my prayers are answered. Sometimes it is just not the answer I want to hear.

We all have our own faith so be respectful enough to the faith of others...first of all you dont even know how many christians are here in the world and you never encounter God, which the Christians praises so never say anything against Him... Let's just respect one another.

Yes, He does care. God uses His people to accomplish His work in this world. God is calling US to put an end to genocide. he has given us the courage, the wisdom, and the understanding to put an end to genocide.
A better question is "Don't WE care?"

God does care, But he also stated that he will limit his interference in the doing of mankind... And if God is anything he will keep his word. And believe me when I say that God did not create man to be such a wild beast. But do to mankind's disobedience and Satan influence mankind and many members of mankind thru their actions have proven themselves un-redeemable and has sentence themselves and those that follow their leads to a horror-able fate.. Please Continue to trust God and keep the faith............... Again many member have chosen to follow the ways of Satan and not God's Commandments..................................... That is not God's fault.

God does not answerbecause they do not really expect an answer. Because if you tell somebody God answered you, they will call you insane!

And, G-d will not answer this prayer. He gave us the earth and life. He gave us brains with which to accomplish great things. It is now time for us to better the world and do our share to help
G-d. We should not just expect G-d to do everything for us.
