Are you are presuming that knowing everything about our deaths is the same as murdering us? I don't. I believe God is always for us. Sickness, accidents, murders and a host of other 'bad' things happen to people. My wife and I lost our baby girl, Tessa.
I don't believe God murdered Tessa. Rather, I see God as being there for my wife and me in our loss. I know God could have saved her. However, I also believe that death ... for those of us who have faith in God ... should be as easy to accept as 'changing our clothes'. I'm not saying it is that easy ... just that faith can make it so.
What cuts so many lives short? I don't think it's God. God is never the problem.

Sound bytes are very deceiving. The Reverand Wright is somewhat touched by fact i've got seen 2 interviews with him and the only interview he develop into very calm and defined the context of the message and in case you have been to view the context of the total message that had the word you stated, you're able to see that using it against the Obama marketing campaign develop into taken thoroughly out of textual content. additionally, I base my religous ideals on how I act and not approximately how others instruct. i've got been to church homes that instruct love, then turn around and talk in the back of your returned, which truly isn't hate, yet shows hypocracy. a lot of human beings make up their very very own faith, that's how Satanists, scientologists, or perhaps Christians exist. Scientology is one in each and every of the youngest religions around as I hadn't heard of it until eventually Mr. Cruise presented the worldwide to it and then i found obtainable are others that have self assurance it. Christians did no longer exist until eventually the time of Christ, for this reason Christianity is below 2000 years previous, so what's new approximately making up religions? Obama ought to get his ideals from the Luthern or the King James version of the Bible and particular the Bible is against homosexuality, however the Bible on no account mentions abortion specifically. Sodom and Gamorrah are the examples of God hating homosexuality, yet i do no longer see everywhere that the Bible constitutes abortion as homicide or blasphemous. that would not recommend i think of that's right, in simple terms that it is not in the Bible. those are purely perspectives and that they are my perspectives. i'm an agnostic who's following the Presidential marketing campaign and attempting to deliver mutually all the data. however if i like one candidate greater effective than yet another may well be beside the point as i could be swayed by THE data of which i visit learn for myself whilst all people needs to tell me something they have self assurance to be authentic or untrue approximately Obama or McCain. The greater you look into each and each candidate, the greater helpful determination you will make in November. desire this enables,

You are completely wrong with this analegy it means in the great book in heaven it is destined when we are born and we will pass into heaven or hell. It does not mean that God has anything to do with our coming or going it just means he is the wisest of the wise and knows these things to a fraction of a second. God our heavenly father is Love he is the person that we can always call father, he will always except us in our faults and our sins. If you do not know this then you do not know the bible or the words within it really talk to a pastor or a minister and get your question asked by a holy man. You asking this is shows you do not understand the bible and christian or even catholic teachings. It's time for you to find God and his love you have been twisted to believe that God or heavenly father is to be feared and that he will cast judgement on you. God is Love he is our heavenly father walk with him talk with him and pray to him and ask forgiveness for the sins you may have commited.

Just proves you are very misinformed . Yep, I believe God knows everything. Even when I am going to die and you too.Doesn't mean he is killing you. If a psychic portends a specific death, is that person arrested for murder afterward?Don't think so. A time for everything under the heavens.....includes death.
If you are non-Christian, just say so instead of trying to make a case for your feelings.

For reasons we fail to fathom life is in a state of continuous life and death
The fact that you fear and are distressed merely by losses which affect you strongly does not stop the fact that this thing you refer to as death is a part of all life
every moment dies
every memory dies
every beam of light comes in photons which give way quickly to the next
It is not so strange to us when it doesn't affect us in ways which take from us the attachments we choose to form
an illusion of attachment which sharing moments memorys and the formation of identity creates for our most superficial perception
we gain insight only from that which we see around us
Were your experience of life to include the mysterious oasis inside where love is a fountain of bliss and awe for all around you even death would be a mystery which increased the miracle of life

I as a human know the typical life expectancy of a dog, a bee, an ant. Does that make me a murderer? When you step on a bug do you think of the immediate consequences or do you look at the long term consequences? Trying to 'think' in such an abstract way as 'God' is something that is nearly impossible. Be glad of you existance and find happiness in it instead of the whys of life. It's fair and human to question everything and youre probably on your way to enlightened spirit. peace

Not all tragic things. He knows when we'll die when:
1. We're sick for long/suffering greatly and really tired.
2. We have completed the mission he gave us.
3. What we're here for is done.
and so more... Not excactly a person who has the ability to shorten and extend our lives...those who mean that misunderstood the bible passage.

Definition of Omniscient: Knowing all things; Having universal knowledge.
Also you might want to look into "Free Will".
God isn't behind it. YOU chose the path you went down a long time ago. Look a little closer to home if your wanting someone to blame.

Well, I personally think you're just being inflammatory and rude.
It goes both ways- don't harrass the Christians and maybe they'll learn not to harrass you.
In direct response to your question, I am not Christian, but your logic seems faulty to me. There is a big difference between God planning our time to die and him being a murderer. Every living being must die, it's part of the cycle of life. Murder is when someone intentionally kills you before your time.
