No there isn't a god and the human race hasn't achieved diddly so far .. considering we're allegedly conscious and rational.

Religion, democracy and capitalism by far the 3 gr8 bads of humanity..

Wow! This a "heavy" question and there will certainly be varied answers. I don't even know how to explain my own answer when it relates to this. I do believe in God for my own reasons and they are fairly personal. I have a relationship between God and myself that brings me comfort. It is sort of similar to being truly in love and the comfort it brings knowing that they love you in return and that it is an unconditional love. It is serene. I don't like the way much of the world's population is functioning at. ....murder seems common place often, child abuse is just plain sick and disheartening, rape, dishonesty, etc., and the list is too long! My heart breaks for all of that! I will never understand why people can not just love each other and get along. Anyway, I guess that is enough sprouting for now.

I just realized there is a 2nd part to your question: This part is harder for me to answer. I am sitting here trying to select the best and the worst and I am sure that there should be something fabulous that should jump out at me and it isn't happening. I'm not all that impressed with television, telephones (which I don't like using much), computers are ok, but I wouldn't classify them as great accomplishments. If I am forced to select, I guess it would be automobiles or airplanes for being able to travel but that isn't where I was hoping to lead. I was hoping to select something good for mankind and my mind isn't functioning this afternoon. The worst accomplishment: television (stab in the dark).

In a Pigs Ear (Proud) of what, as far as I am concerned the Human Race has accomplished nothing, for what he builds he destroys eventually. I think the many bad things we have done outweighs the good things look at the crazy mixed up world we live in.

God's existence is not a matter of question; He is real and that's a fact. You may not see Him but it is your faith that allows you to see Him. Anyway, I don't think God is very much pleased with what mankind has achieved since time immemorial. We humans may be happy with the inventions and the technology that we have discovered and made but, at what price?

At the price of our belief in God and His existence because we have clearly forgotten to worship Him and to obey His laws. At the price of millions of human lives and properties that were lost and destroyed because of modern technology like the atom bombs that were dropped in Nagasaki and Hiroshima. And still, the worst is yet to come because man has not stopped producing more powerful armaments to be pitted against each other.

I don't think there has any been a best achievement we have made since the earth began. The worst? It remains to be seen, if we are lucky to be alive by then.

Millions of Christians throughout the world and I don't mean the people who call themselves Christians but aren't.....have a relationship with the living God Jesus so YES there is a God. As for whether He is proud or not of what the human race has accomplished........I guess you have to put yourself in His position as best you can and think...if one of your children invented a bow and arrow to hunt for food..you would think he/she was resourceful...but how would you feel if another of your children used that bow and arrow to kill someone..knowing it was against your will? If one of your children invented nuclear energy and another used it to make bombs and killed thousands of your other children with them..how would you feel?
God gave man freewill and resources...man takes those resources and uses them...usually initially for good and then for harm..........
Would you be pleased if you were God? I think not!.
I would love to say it is not too late to change the world for the better and please God but I guess if that happened it would go against the Scriptures...and if anyone has studied the Scriptures avidly they will know that we have reached a stage where 'The End Times' are fast approaching...are you ready for the End Times? If you aren't then find out what will happen and act before it is too late.
May God Bless all who read these words with the wisdom to seek the truth rather than ridicule it through lack of understanding.
Best wishes, Mike.

Yes, there is a God; the one and only true God, Creator of the heavens and the earth, and His son, our savior Jesus Christ.

No, God would not be proud of what the human race had accomplished. Is sin an accomplishment? Murder, incest, drugs and abusive conduct, filthy talk, taking the name of God in vain, worshiping other gods and idols, adultery and homosexuality, foul talk, disrespectful behavior towards parents and others, stealing, lying, raising up children without disciplinary action, abortion, sexual misconduct present on our TVs and radio's and the movies, lack of integrity and trust in another, not attending God's church on His day, misleading and evil???? I could continue but I do believe this covers a lot of ground.

No one does good, no not one. (Psalm 14:3) There is no one who does good, not even one.

Enough said! God is not proud of His creation when it has forsaken Him and does not reflect upon His light, but the darkness of evil.

There is a God. He is not proud. Revelations is showing step by step the undoing of mankind. We have fulfilled what was to happened before the end of time. That time is now.
There is no best. The worst is that we have destroyed a beautiful world with litter and totally physical destruction of it's
natural resources by our greed.

We are here only for a short time so we see the world as someone with very short sight.

God sees the overall picture. I am 76. All that has happened in my lifetime is as nothing in God's time scale and since we will never know the full consequences of our actions in this world your question cannot be fully answered.

Im not really sure. It would be half and halk i think. Since this beginning of time, mankind has accomplished such a lot with inventions and creations, sucessful figures and good people in this world like mother theresa. Yes, i think he would be proud to some extent, but then he would become very angry and really vent his fury over all the wars that mankind has witnessed, murders, rape, suicide, abortion, etc.

Its very ahrd to be specific because he has to access everything since the start of mankind which is ging back millions of years ago.

But i believe that he would be proud and at the same time very very angry, and those people that have committed evil and worship the devil will be serverly punished.

For the rest of us, we might either directly enter heavne or purgatory. I belive that most of us will enter purgatory. There are many levels to purgatory, by the way, depending on what you have done in your life.
