November 13, 20178 yr You have a chance to talk to God(however you define "God") and ask Him ONE question, which will be then be answered for you. What one question would you ask? Would it be "why all the suffering" ? Could you have stopped Sutherland from happening? How and why did it(the universe) all begin? Is there intelligent life elsewhere in the universe? Are there other universes? What do you think of same sex marriage? Was the Bible divinely inspired? Is it time for Marvin Lewis to go? Why was Nipsey Russell so good at game shows? Seriously, the list of questions I would like to ask is virtually endless. What question would you choose to ask? Heck, I'll make it easier for you, if you just can't possibly narrow it down to one question, give the THREE questions that you would ask.
November 13, 20178 yr This is a great subject. I think if I ever get to talk with him my question would be, where did God come from ?
November 13, 20178 yr Because I believe in the reality of Hell, my question would be, "Why would you allow some people to exist if you know beforehand that they will spend eternity apart from you?"
November 13, 20178 yr Because I believe in the reality of Hell, my question would be, "Why would you allow some people to exist if you know beforehand that they will spend eternity apart from you?" Very interesting. I wonder if God really knows beforehand or not.
November 13, 20178 yr ^ My understanding of Scripture is that He does. I always wondered if you were more of a Calvin guy or a Hobbes guy...I guess now we know.
November 14, 20178 yr Q: Why do humans (not all) tend to refer to you in the "male" sense? Q: If you exist, and it's true that there is a Heaven and a Hell, and that we must abide by your laws and words interpreted and passed down by humans to get to Heaven, or to avoid Hell, how are we to know that what humans have written are truly your words, and why would you hold us accountable for this if we have no way to be certain while also having serious doubts when it's been none other than other humans that claim this to be the truth? In other words we must take man at his word that what he has written has been inspired by you, and while there's something puzzling about this, something so seemingly important hinges on something that is so fundamentally illogical, unknowable, and unprovable, yet we're expected to believe it come Hell or high water... What's up with that God? Q: If you exist, and the Holy Bible is your word, then how do other people who are raised from birth in other cultures to be passionately devout followers of a different religion, come to know for certain that they've been following the wrong religion, and how do they without extreme guilt and confusion, while experiencing ostracization from their family and other followers of their religion, comfortably switch to the correct one? Q: We're taught that Jesus and Mary ascended into Heaven in their human form. With other imaginable ways for them to exist there, why would bodily be the most desirable, and how has this proved beneficial to them? Q: If you exist, and there are billions of others planets, why did you focus on this one Planet Earth to be where you placed all of humanity to be the followers of you? No offense God, but it would seem to be a bit overkill to go to all that extravagance and fuss if our existence is all about you and us.
November 14, 20178 yr Very interesting. I wonder if God really knows beforehand or not. Doesn’t scripture say God omniscient?

My one question would be Why doesn’t b-ball-fan understand the word “One” ?
November 14, 20178 yr I always wondered if you were more of a Calvin guy or a Hobbes guy...I guess now we know. :lol2::lol2: I don't think foreknowledge equates to causation. That still made me laugh though.
November 14, 20178 yr My one question would be Why doesn’t b-ball-fan understand the word “One” ? Technically he was ultimately allowing for THREE, but you know that only opened the flood gates and encouraged me to take advantage of his leniency to stretch that limit even further. :banana:
November 14, 20178 yr Technically he was ultimately allowing for THREE, but you know that only opened the flood gates and encouraged me to take advantage of his leniency to stretch that limit even further. :banana: LOL, for the record, no chance I read any of your answers (questions) when you post that many.
November 14, 20178 yr LOL, for the record, no chance I read any of your answers (questions) when you post that many. But they weren't for you, they were for God.
November 14, 20178 yr But they weren't for you, they were for God. He hears a lot of questions daily. If I throw one out it better be a massively famous question.
November 14, 20178 yr He hears a lot of questions daily. If I throw one out it better be a massively famous question. Next time God and I are just hanging out kicking the jams I'll be sure to ask him what the hell more does Jim James have to do to be considered massively famous? :idunno:
