IF there was a God...
 

....what is the one question you would ask him/her?

We've talked about God a lot and our views on religion but putting them aside, what would you like to ask?

Re: IF there was a God...
 

wheres the best pub?.:D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Simple cos 'the higher being' is sick of being told......................."why me"?!? lol :D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Why me?.....

I do actually ask him that quite often.

With some of the stress i have i often think i must have been really bad in a past life....although i know im not alone in thinking this.

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Gayle, I am listening, just because I don't answer very often, doesn't mean I'm ignoring you!

Perhaps if you were to sacrifice your first born?.....

Re: IF there was a God...
 

As Willow says, this is the question a lot of people would ask.

I heard someone ask a vicar this question once and the answer was that all these things are man made.

God made the world and mankind and can't be held responsible for wars. We bring these on ourselves. I understand that some illnesses are man made too but others are not. People can't help getting illnesses like cancer....that's the part I don't understand. :confused:

Re: IF there was a God...
 

You pinched my question:)

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I would ask why people no longer use the subjunctive:confused:

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Don't they? :confused:

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I would like to know if he/she has made any other worlds, and please could I go an take a look to see how they are doing compared with Earth. :)

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Think he means "If there were" ?

Re: IF there was a God...
 

What is your favourite service station god?

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Ah right, Got you Katex.

Blimey, that guy's even pickier than I am! :eek::D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I would not ask him anything - I would find a good lawyer and sue him

Re: IF there was a God...
 

We all have a purpose in life;):D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Maybe the Book of Job covers this one.

Re: IF there was a God...
 

So your Holiness why, exactly, did you invent the daddy-long-legs?

Re: IF there was a God...
 

And while we are at it, the duck billed platypus:confused:

Re: IF there was a God...
 

is pregnancy a punishment for the whole apple thing?

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Nope... pregnancy is "punishment" for not using protection :D lol

Punishment for the whole apple thing.... is .... lust ;)

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Re: IF there was a God...
 

labours not so bad...doesnt last as long :D *cough*45 mins *cough*

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I'd ask if there really was an afterlife...

...but on second thoughts I'd be quite upset if he said no...

Do you think he'd answer your question honestly? Maybe we can make him swear on the bible ;)

Re: IF there was a God...
 

No mention of an apple in the Bible:(and the animals didn't go in to the Ark two by two:tongueout

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Sorry only just seen this thread, I will try and answer your questions soon :D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Good cop out that. I wonder where he got his proof, the Bible maybe.

Please explain which illnesses are man made? I thought the Bible say God made everything on earth. Does that not include bacteria and viruses? Come to think of it He made a pretty poor job when He made humans. Maybe we were a Monday morning race ;)

I will ask you a question then Lilly, are Vicars good people?

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I would ask 'why do we have two sets of teeth before we are ten when our second set would be more useful at fifty?'.

I also want to know why hair runs out of colour so soon!

Re: IF there was a God...
 

My take on this would be....Why to flying rats in the guise of Pidgeons and Seagulls......Mosqitoe's and Wasps? :confused:

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Don't blame me re the vicar's answer.....I'm only repeating what one vicar told my friend when she asked the question.

Maybe man made was the wrong term to use re illnesses....maybe self inflicted would be more like it. Some illnesses are self inflicted. George Best had a self inflicted illness.

As for the last bit.....are vicars good people? :eek:

I don't know what to say to that.....I suppose you can't generalise, can you?

You can't say all vicars are good just like you can't say that all estate agents are dishonest and all male hairdressers are gay....we have an image of people who do certain jobs that we like them to fit.

I've known some lovely vicars but sadly I know there are some who aren't so lovely. You'll get that in any job though.

:alright::lol::yelrotflm:rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::r ofl38::rofl38:


OMG that has killed me . totally made my weekend thanks June, karma on its way hun x:D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I'd ask Him why is he making my Mum suffer so much, and in turn making her family suffer as well.

Re: IF there was a God...
 

You're definitely not alone. I think you've been very bad in a past life too.

From your pics, it looks like you're quite naughty in this one too.



I'd ask God: "Why didn't you just make a world where forgiveness wasn't needed?"

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Ask how best to uninvent him without causing panic to believers

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I`d ask him the same but about my mother in law........!!!!!:(

Re: IF there was a God...
 

There is a God n he don't live a million miles away from here.:rolleyes:

Re: IF there was a God...
 

:eek::eek::eek: Which pictures were you looking at? :eek::eek::eek:
:o:o:oYou really have got the wrong person!:o:o:o

Re: IF there was a God...
 

OOOOOO can we see these pictures please.......LOL;)

Re: IF there was a God...
 

In my opinion, miss kitty looks like butter wouldnt melt, perhaps corker could enlighten us, or god? Maybe I should ask him when I get there. lol

Re: IF there was a God...
 

It was the fruit from the forbidden tree.

It was seven of each species.

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Re: IF there was a God...
 

seven of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mates, and two of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, and also seven of every kind of bird, male and female.

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I would ask how God views the differing religions jockeying for ecclesiastical supremacy........although ecclesiastic isn't really the right word as it relates to Christianity!

On a lighter less serious note......I would ask if this all seeing power, could tell me where in the house my gold knot earring is :)

Re: IF there was a God...
 

oh my goodness....seriously these pictures do not exist....


and yes misskitty does look like butter wouldn't melt because it wouldn't...

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Much obliged for clarifying the pedantic finer points. No mention of insects though, which are VITAL in pollinating plants and cleaning up carcases.

According to the Biblical literalists the Ark had a total floor space of some 100,000 square feet. Large animals like elephants, rhinos etc would need some 400 sq ft each and at least ten times that for their feed. That would be about 28,000 sq ft for 7 elephants alone.

Then there were the carnivores to cater for, not forgetting drinking water for all.

Even if it were ‘kinds’ of animals, like felines, bovines, equines etc, as some theological historians claim where did the various species come from after the flood?

Which were the unclean animals, apart from man and woman?

This whole God, Adam and Eve and Noah thing is just a story concocted by some very clever people to grab power for themselves. And of course these events were only written about well after the event.

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Hmm - well I've seen one that would best be described with the following words in a different order:
"girl on girl action tongue":dflam:

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Well i would now ask God if these pics could be made public.............:D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

OMG yea i lied (i forgot about those ones!).......and anyway they are public-they are on my facebook ;)

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I would ask why Jambutty has to spoil every lighthearted thread with his seriousness....

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I think It was a lighthearted look at people and believe me there are people that believe in Adam&Eve and Noah Mother Goose and Jack and the Beanstalk.:D:D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Oh beam me up Scotty!

It wasn't a problem, nor was I being a pedant, I was just clarifying a mistaken statement made by one fellow member, have a nice day you all!

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Indeed the last part of your post is probably accurate. The medieval church, at least from the time of Pope Gelasius, used the ark thing as part of their argument that the Apostolic See had both religious and temporal power. The ark story was interpreted as a metaphor for the inclusiveness of the church. The ark argument is used as late as 1302, I think, in Pope Boniface Vlll's Bull, Unam Sanctam, which was part of the propaganda war between Boniface and Phillip lV.

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I've always wondered why so many people that struggle to exist can afford to spend so much money on a building to high lite a person that is a figment of so many imaginations.
Yes I believe there is a creator but I don't subscribe to the idea that he needs my money.
Shame on the people that use grief on other people to make money.
:(:(:(:(

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I would ask him, if he isn't responsible for, and doesn't expect to take any crap for, all the bad stuff that goes on, then why does he expect so much damn praise for the good stuff that goes on. Can't have it both ways God old chap.

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I would ask God this question. When Jesus ascended into heaven where did he go?

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I would ask what fool evented the german language and then request him to smite the said fool for bothering me with german homework when I have more important things to do!!! :D

"are you on drugs or is it just the PMT kicking in"

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I'd ask, Strictly or X-Factor?

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Seeing he's a nifty mover, me thinks it would be Strictly Rindi:D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Re: IF there was a God...
 

I'd ask - why is is that if a person talks to God it's called praying - and that if God talks to a person it's called Schizophrenia?

Re: IF there was a God...
 

Because God is an imaginary friend for grown ups.:D:D

Re: IF there was a God...
 

lol...never a truer word....
