Why do we quote God when there is absolutely no way to know what he said?
Why do we document God's actions before any other life ever existed?
If he actually talked to people, you really think he would waste his time revealing what he said when there was nothing there to listen to him?
Why did God say "Let there be Light," anyways? There wasn't anything there to listen to him.
Why did people write the Bible so long after the fact - and is there any chance they misremembered?
While God was instructing everyone on what the Bible should say, do you suppose he could have taken credit for the actions of Mother Nature, Zeus, or Ra?
How come He was so eager to show off his stuff during earlier times of hardship, but now decides not to perform (noticable) miracles when hardship is more prevalent then ever before?
You don't have to answer all of them, but give me something. And don't seriously answer the Ra question, that was a joke.

Who was around to hear God say "Let there be Light"?
i dont think anyone was... i'm not really sure i would have to research it... i can't remmeber what comes first or second... it doesn't matter tho.. have you ever cleaned a room or something and started singing or... tried to shoot a piece of trash in the trashcan.. and get it in and say SCOORRE!!!! sometimes you just say things.
Why do we quote God when there is absolutely no way to know what he said?
these phrophets that wrote the bible... did not write there own words. god sent his holy spirit to them. obviously these men were not there when god was creating light.. haha but god let them know that thats what happened.
Why do we document God's actions before any other life ever existed?
i dont know what you mean by 'we' documented it.. but...
god wrote these things down because.. it helps us to understand why we are here, and how we came to be here... he knows that we are curious and our brains love to learn and take in information. he is loving and thats why he tells us how everything works.
If he actually talked to people, you really think he would waste his time revealing what he said when there was nothing there to listen to him?
(i'm not really sure what this quesiton means.. its doesn't make snes.. if people where there... nothing was there to listen to him???)
Why did God say "Let there be Light," anyways? There wasn't anything there to listen to him.
i think you already asked this above.....i dont think he needs a reason.. he just said it?
Why did people write the Bible so long after the fact - and is there any chance they misremembered?
because.. number one... there was no people to record it... number two.. i think it took a while for 'writing words' to even exsist... plus i can't imagine it being easy to write all of this.. they coudn't go to the nearest staples and buy a type writer... or even a pencil and pen... ya know?? god reveals things at the right time for the right reasons. there are things in the bible that we didnt understand years ago and we are getting a clearer understanding every year that passes by... the light is getting brighter!

i could write a page full on this.. but i'll try to explain it in easy terms.... right now satan is the ruler of the earth.
in 1914 jesus cleaned the heavens.. he threw satan to the earth and he is not aloud back up in heaven....
hence the "our lord" prayer
"let your will take place in heaven also upon the earth"
his will is nearly fufilled in heaven already...
the reason he is allowing all of this saddness and maddness to go on on the earth right now goes someting a little like this...
say you have a child.. a three year old.. he says to you.. mommy i want to put on my own shoes..
and even tho you know he cant do it... you say.. fine.. do it.
the kid comes to you 5 minuites later with the shoes on the wrong feet and the shoelaces untied...
this is kind of like whats going on in this world today..
satan told jehovah... i can do it by myself.. i can get them to all worship me instead of you... i can make them all turn against you and do what i say...
and jehovah said.. you know what.. go ahead.
satan cant do it... and hes working his hardest right now because he knows he only has a little bit of time left to prove himself.. hes probably getting angry and embarressed as well cuz he cant do it.
just like a little kid woudl do.. they might get mad and frustrated and cry...
if you have more questions please email me!

Man i just want to tell you that i am a big fan of your ideology and your music.
i actually believe that if god existed he would have made the fact of his existence irrefutable by all people, and then since all people know his there, he'd judge each one for his/her deeds in life. like for example the sun; no rational human being would deny its existence. he wouldnt have made it a hard task to believe in him "Leap Of Faith!!!" . and then why is the mere beleif in his existence so important. Shouldn't the emphasize be on the morals and ethics of each individual?
Anyways keep doing what you're doing man, i have great respect for you, peace out
And i know what i said has nothin to do with your questions, but since your greydon square, i had to say anything

Chuck Norris, The Flying Spagetti Monster, and the Invisible Pink Unicorn. I think there was a teepot floating around out there too.

I've always wondered, when God said "let there be light" is that when he created the sun?
What about the other suns in the universe, were they made at the same time?
I'm sorry for answering your question with questions, they are all rhetorical.

My take on it is that the people of the time were more knowledgeable and accepting of the process of divination. But the metaphorical results of divination were overgeneralized and became doctrine, instead of the methodology being preserved to allow descendents to be guided by their own revelations. Luckily, the methodology is always there within each of us awaiting discovery.

There were the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit and all the angels at the time of the Creation. They could talk to each other.

God did not say anything. His actions were louder than any words. That's just our way of recognizing those actions.

Have a great and glorious day. God be with you.
