Because it seems like He gets His kicks out of making things difficult for us down here.Do you think He watches us like some big sitcom or something?

Our Atheist friends should enjoy this one.
Why do we believe in a God that makes life so difficult?
Life in general is difficult at times even if you believe or not. The more difficult the road, probably means you took a wrong turn somewhere.
And yes, God watches, not to get kicks or laughs, but to see how intelligent we are. Do we learn from our mistakes, or are we doomed to repeat them. I personally like to learn from mine and take better directions the next time.
We can make our lives a lot harder than they have to be, if we are not open to change and the opportunity to have someone to listen to our petitions.
I look to God for advice in all things. If I'm just talking to the wind as some believe, the wind gives some very good advice, but I prefer to believe it's God's voice.

Of course God does not think of his people as entertainment. Contrary to what people think, God is not in control of every moment of our lives. In his word it states he gave dominon over the world to man. He does not control everything in this world or this would be a loving world. He loves man so much that he let us live our life, make our own choices. If you are going through something difficult, that's when you are to turn to him for guidance and help.
Also remember, sometimes difficult times are needed. Sometimes we need to experience things the hard way to truely "learn".
He only wants the best for us, but it is up to us to seek his favor. Take care.

Well, to me yeah! God is the ultimate Big Brother and every person who believes in him is the housemate.
But the thing here is, do you believe God wants to make our life difficult? I believe that God is an absolute good and can never play with his creations.
If God was responsible, then he is not absolute good, meaning he is not God therefore there is no God. So, with common understanding, since God is absolute Good, he doesn't play with his creations.
The question is who does? And why things so difficult?

God is a spirit, and He has a sense of humor; he's not the one making life miserable for us, well sometimes He will make a lesson worth learning. And yes we are here for His entertainment, as much as you're parents had you for entertainment purposes. He made us so that we can love Him. He's a wonderful God and loving beyond we are able to understand.

No. God created us originally as beings to share and rejoice in the world he had created. when we fell through original sin, we created distance between us and God, and we could no longer dwell with him. he hasn't made things difficult for us, we have. whether through our choices or the choices of others, our problems are not his fault. he wants to help...the bible says he'll give you double for your trouble, and satan will have to return to you seven times what he stole (i think it's seven, at least, might be ten).
he doesn't watch us like a sitcom. he rejoices when we rejoice, and he's sad when he sees us struggle, and he gets upset when we don't follow him. we aren't entertainment...he wants us to know him more than anything.

well, problems are just part of our lives. those are the spices of life. if God made things so easy for us, can we still appreciate the beauty of life? can we still feel that nice feeling of success when we were able to surpass the trials that God has given us? can you still say that your happy when everyday you just feel the same? no, we cant. God made our life full of problems and challenges, in order for us to differentiate between right and wrong, between happiness and sadness. we must work hard and have faith in Him.God doesn't mean to make us feel that we were just being played by Him, He just want to make us feel that we are capable of solving our problems, and He wants to teach us to believe in Him and to believe in our own self.

I think he watches us to see if we can do what we are supposed to be doing on the Earth. He tries to guide us through the obstacles of everyday life so it's more like a game show to him!!! LOL!!!

no, we are a form of entertainment to satan, he gets his kicks hurting us. bible says satan is the ruler of the world and he is the one that tries any and everything he can to cause us to pull away from or blame god. and until god returns this is how it will be.

I wouldn't think that we're "entertainment." There's no telling why we're here though. I think religion is just something to cling onto.

He didn't suffer agony on a cross and die for you because you were a form of entertainment.
