    I do think that asking "what has God done for me lately" is kind of missing the point. Assume for the moment that God do ...[text shortened]... I don't believe in God just so he can 'do nice things' for me.
    The "Santa Claus God".

    EDIT: Plus, as Chesterton might say, what hasn't God done for me today? I woke up today with all my hands and feet; with enough to drink and enough to eat.

    welcome to reality............................nothing is perfect and no one is either.
    Wasn't the point of this thread discussion? Or were you just looking for people to hit out at because of your own crisis of faith, and the ensuing frustrations?😠

    "it is all a bunch of bull crap to me anyways. i dont think that i will ever go back to church or believe in god"

    P.S. [b]I sincerely doubt that God believes in you either, so you are even.😀

    Rubbish. God continues to believe in all humans (in a sense, anyway). 🙂

    There once was a man who said, “God
    Must think it exceedingly odd
    If He finds that this tree
    Continues to be
    When there’s no one about in the Quad.”


    “Dear Sir:
    Your astonishment’s odd:
    I am always about in the Quad
    And that’s why the tree
    Will continue to be,
    Since observed by,
    Yours faithfully,
    God.”

    When asked by a student name Todd
    How great is the power of God?
    I replied with the tale
    of jonah and the whale
    I guess it was just a big cod
