What God are you talking about? Not mine.

The only people that cause controversy, war hate, and destruction are people like you. God is love,and one day you will find out that all this time you should have been a believer,but when judgment day comes it will be to late for you.

God is the great first cause, but not necessarily the "culprit" behind 'controversy, war, hate, and destruction.' Is not man responsible for these things? Did not man crucify the very God you speak of? Yet He came in peace, healed the sick, raised the dead, and comforted the fallen. Yet even in this, man's greatest wrong, God transformed to create the greatest possible blessing - forgiveness for our sins for all of eternity. God hardly does 'nothing' as you say, but His work is done when it comes to salvation. Read the New Testament, especially John and Romans, and see what God has done for you.

I don't think anyone should pray to that god, for that god is a false god. The true God would have you believe in Him and recognize that we are all sons and daughters of God and therefore brothers and sisters to each other.
If we would all turn our hearts to God, there would be no controversy, war, hate, and destruction. Those are all fabrications of Satan and of people.

Obviously it should tell you something if you are praying to a God and you're not getting an response OR you are but it's completely negative. (i.e. Having your prayers backfire on you, you pray for protection and a tornado destroys your house.) It should tell you A. The God you're praying to doesn't exist. B. He does exist but he's a malevolent SOB. C. He just doesn't care or isn't interested. In any of those cases it would be foolish to worship such a being. You'd be at best wasting your time and at worse giving him power over you to bring ruin to your life.

Just consider the immprobable for a moment. Everyone in the world falls on their knees at the foot of the cross(spiritually speaking),accepts and adopts Jesus and his teachings.
Why condition would you suppose the world would be in the next day?

So nothing good has ever happened? Wow, what a negative attitude that you cannot see the beauty in life! If nothing else, be thankful to God that you are breathing.

I dnt think u shld be saying this stuf. ! thats is wrong. he is a god that loves his children. even you. he has not caused war. people who believe in him do not want war. its other religions and people who are on satans side that are ruining Gods world as it is today. he did not cause war. I sugest that you read the bible. It says in is: " for God so loves the world that he gave his only son to die on the cross for us, so tht we could be forgivern".

If you attribute those things to God then he must exist and if he exists then to what do you attribute all the good in the world that he is said to do?

I don't know which God you pray to, but the one I pray to has done quite a bit for me.

Either He does nothing (ie doesn't exist), or he does what he says he will do (allow man to exercise his freewill). Either way, he isn't causing the things you say he is.
