Or else this means some of his children are: Crack whores, murders, rapists, theifs, baby seal clubbers, starving, without food or fresh water, without clothes, without proper health care, diseased, pimps, drug dealers, alcoholics, addicted to drugs, liars, criminals, women beaters, dead beat dads, child abusers, kidnappers, George Bush, suicide bombers, pedophiles, nazis, homeless, suicidal, alone, in jail, gangsters, etc, etc.

Now in most of these cases this would be due to neglectful, or poor parenting (not all cases but do a little research). If God is our Father, then He was been a poor parent to let a lot of His children hurt themselves so much.

I have mere mortal parents and I don't fall into any of these categories, because I was raised well. Yet God has "raised" humanity to become a greedy race who instead of working to unite themselves, would rather fight over black goo. Good parenting.

So can we stop using the God as our father analogy now?

Probably not.

Jesus referred to God as father dozens of times in the Gospels and Christians have a tendency to use the Word of Christ in their preaching.

God created humans to live in love and harmony. But humans using their God-given free will have turned away from God.

God as Jesus Christ became a man to make paradise available to us again and teaches us how to live there, "You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

With love in Christ.

Religions , jesus Christ, Buddha...... Many others like them got here long long after people have been given here into being. That itself must be evidence sufficient to declare that the commencing up of a existence , in the worldwide, is desperate at an altogether different plane. the eastern innovations have confidence that for the time of human births if there are unfinished needs previously than loss of life , then the soul is born lower back right into a kinfolk that has this possibility to fulfill the purposes. You talk of Osama. For all all of us know ( or donot understand) Osama , in his previous start up could have obtrusive countless numbers of his people killed or maimed and in his very final start up he could have needed for revenge . he's having that probability. As a lot as a non christian can to discover jesus the christians can locate a Buddha responding too. For Jesus does now not differentiate between a Christian or a non Christian. If he did he's not Jesus then.
