ROFL, too funny :)
Kinda makes you think though - If god was elected as a CEO of a company, he would have been fired by the shareholders how many times over for failure to do his job.

What is Gods job in your mind? Just because he loves you doesnt mean you get to live, and if you live it doesnt mean he loves you more. What if those that died got accepted into "heaven" or whatever your "heaven" is? Would that not mean he favors the dead?
This is why I dont dwell on god or his actions. I dont even ask myself if he exists. After all, why would he give us free will, if he wasnt willing to accept that some of us might reject him?

"A god given free will" is hypocritcal itself. It's more like "a will that god has given to you to obey him and worship him or suffer the concequences (hell)". So technically it wouldn't be a free will at all because I wouldn't be allowed to do certain things because it's against god's bidding.
Ofcourse im an atheists so none of this has anything to do with me. Just something I was thinking about the other night.

I used to be Atheist. Now I know better. When looking at Faith from a logical standpoint, neutrality is the only way to go.
By the way, you are living breathing proof to a believer that god gave us free will. If he didnt, how could you chose to reject him?
