Interesting. Thanks.

I don't believe in god so it would be kind of silly, kind of like getting mad at an imaginary friend, no fear there is medication for that too. Any way when I was a student in clinical pastoral education and the only non-Christian/atheist in my class one student told the instructor she was mad at god, I kind of chuckled for the obvious reason but was asked to expand on my amusement I told the class if I were to believe in their almighty God creator of the heavens and the Earth the one in the end who would judge me worthy or unfit for the kingdom of glory I certainly would not have the assiduity or nerve to be peeved at this being especially after reading the Bible and seeing what he is capable of when he is not happy. My instructor agreed with and spent the rest of the class talking about unjustified anger.

I did once, but not God in the sense of one(since I'm a polytheist). It was after a day of work and I had to what for my ride to get back since he went with the truck guy to delivers stuff. Well it was cooled and I was hungry and I didn't have the key to the car but it was unlocked. But I start to feel weird and went out walking and ranting to myself, well I said ........ well I can't say it here.... about the Gods and the next thing I know I feel on a patch of ice. I'm not saying they made me slip or anything I just though that the timing was kind of..weird. Though I really don't know way I got made. I guess I was just cooled, hungry, and tired.

I got mad at God once. I decided to do battle with the devil thinking that God would be right there helping out but He wasn't. I have since learned that this was the sin of presumtpion on my part. Needless to say I won't be doing battle unless God has made it clear that is what He wants and will be there to protect me.

I can't complain though. God has saved me from a number of unpleasant things and most of the time I am under His protection. It is like riding a bicycle. You have to fall and get hurt some before learning how to ride without falling.
