Like maybe make them stand in the corner or spank their bottems?
Why does he threaten his children with even greater harm then the worst of the terrorists here on earth. Like if God turned up and spanked me for being a bi-sexual(well I might like that) or maybbe if he just took away my vagina, well I'll be sorry, so why the big 9-11 type stuff? Thats not loving your children!

God does not punish We do that ourselves. We are here to learn and some of the lessons may seem harsh but they dont have to be. Its just that most do not heed warnings. For example how many people drink and drive to excess and yet they know it is wrong. It is not until they are caught or worse that they take any notice and sometimes the result is a lot more serious that loosing their licence. Not learning lessons can result in negative karma but that too is not an external thing more something that you do to yourself so that you may learn. Being part of the natural world bi-sexuality is in all animals yes even humans but only some people accept this but it is not something that one needs to be punished for as it is the natural state of things.
9-11 is also about what people do to themselves and not God punishing people. We hold the power. The power to live a better more caring and compassionate life and the greatest power of all and that is to forgive. Blessings Furdion

God is at work in everything. Have you read the Book of Job? Isn't blaming God failing the test? Satan had everything to do with 911 that is why it's called terrorism. How many people's faith was put to the test? Gathered from what i have witnessed, most of the world and how much faith has come from 911...how much strength and wisdom? How much guidance and how many lessons were learned? Then there is - love - which can never be defeated even if someone near and dear to us dies.

How old are you, dear friend?!!!!
Struggle b/n good n evil is ceaseless n eternal.
One final thing, wt ever the stuff it could be, if you are leading a truthful life, nothing is gonna scare you. You better read some holy books and try to understand life in a better way. Death is not the end of soul, each of us moving towards eternity passing through diff lifes. Engage yourself and perfom your duty with selflessness. Love and care this world.
As for punishment is concerned, there r different degrees for diff offences. Just be prepared to accept the life as it comes. No one knows if he is gonna be alive tomorrow.

People blame God for everything, the Devil never gets any credit. But, to answer your question, if you think about it God DOES punish people in a constructive way or rather an ironic way.
Don't you find it ironic that Saddam Hussein was executed from the end of a rope after all the people he executed under his regime? Or that Hitler died from a gunshot to the head from his own hand after all the people he killed?
Even good people die in ironic ways, like Steve Irwin, after all the deadly and dangerous animals he played with, he died from one of the least likely animals you can die from.
Good or bad people often die in ways that seem ironic which proves to me that God is practical which also means constructive

You mean to say if he made you stand in the corner or spanked your bottom, that would be a constuctive way of punishing!?!
9-11 for your information is not God's punishment but manmade destruction. He sends us messages but we are blind and can't catch it.

First of all GOD didn't cause 9-11, terrorist did. Why do people insist on blaming GOD for all the "bad things" that happen but never remember to thank him for the good things that happen that we take for grantent like the air we breathe, the sunrise and sunsets every day. Or how about the rain, or rainbows etc...

He does correct constructively.
"6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby." Hebrews 12 Holy Bible KJV

Why blame God for giving man a free will? 9/11 had nothing to do with the will of God. Maybe if you didn't focus so much on your vagina your head might clear a little

Yes we are his children but he is not going to babysit all of us. We are giving life and choices. We were given free will to make those choices and hopefully make the right ones. Like Adam and Eve were. Adam and Eve chose to do wrong, so has the world. It is not god that should be looked at on this matter, he gave us the choice and the whole world chose this. The people in this world chose to hate and kill. Please dont be mad at god for the error of humans!
