Am I the only one here who worships a God that I hate? I pray on my face more than five times a day trying to surrender to God like a Muslim. I practice Salaat and I tithe more than 10% to beggars who show up at my door looking like lost puppies. I feel sorry for them. I do it because God says to. I do it to please our angry God who burns with wrath over "abominations" and burns people in hell for not adhering to his violent text and not believing in him.

God leaves 2 billion Christians believing in their violent text and 1.6 billion Muslims believing in their violent text. God could just speak up and no need for a violent text that contradicts itself. God is responsible for all the confusion. God is the reason pedophiles molest children because God refuses to give pedophiles healthy minds. God refuses to protect children. God could make pedophiles die innocent as babies.

God is the author of evil because he created the Devil, gives the devil access to manipulate our minds and stir up confusion, and refuses to give people understanding, causing division and bloodbaths over Doctrinal differences. If an antichrist reigns, it is because God wants him to.

Why worship such a jerk? Well, I feel maybe, just maybe if I worship God enough he will stop whining like an impetuous child and burning people in hell for something stupid like not believing in him. I feel maybe I can influence God's cold, barbaric, cruel, and merciless heart of stone, to actually show some compassion toward people and show some decorum and basic consideration for an agonizing human race.

Unlike God, I don't want my worst enemy to go to hell.

I feel sorry for and even love radical Islamic terrorists because they know nothing but fear, bigotry, and hate, and that is a terrible agony to be stuck in.

I've been there at times. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

God on the other hand puts people in hell for not believing correct Dogma. At least the Bible and Qur'an indicate that.

So, I worship our sick depraved God to try to inspire him to be as nice to people as myself and so many others are. I try to teach him lessons and give him instructions on how to practice basic forms of charity rather than leave people tortured in this life and the next.


Why do you worship God? What is your agenda?

I don't strictly believe in any actual "god" or "goddess," but as an agnostic, I'm still open to the possibility.

If and when God actually asks me directly to worship Him, then I will. However, I see a lot of people write and speak about God as if they are an authority, and they make a lot of unfounded statements about God loving everyone and having a plan for everyone. How do they know what God thinks or wants?

I've never met God nor do I even have knowledge that any entity called "God" even exists. How can I hate something I've never met or seen?

If there's anyone I might actually hate (although "hate" might not be the right word to describe the feeling I have), it's all those people out there who constantly talk about God and spout off as if they're God's personal spokesperson on Earth. They're the ones filling people's heads with false hopes, unrealistic expectations, and basically setting people up for a huge disappointment.

You forgot about the avocado.

You should have allowed more than one answer. I would have chosen three of them.

I’ll answer more seriously after I think about it some more.

Why should YHWH do a thing for you, your made perfectly capable.
Perfectly capable for what?

I asked God to make me a docile instruments in his hands and give me understanding. He doesn't do it.

God created the devil to deceive and God created Adolf Hitler to do what he did, and God wants the world to be an evil sick place or he would enlighten people to behave differently.

God wants people to suffer and be miserable, or God would simply give them joy and clarity.

Confusion exists because God wants it to exist , because God refuses to speak , and so the world is confused.

God is the author of confusion, and the Bible has verses that say the opposite of what other verses say, leading people to opposite conclusions.

Maybe, I can get God to show a basic charity and consideration for others.

Maybe God could get a clue and actually recognize how much it would help our world if he would simply speak to people.

God wants to torture us with silence and leave the Muslims to believe what they believe and leave the Christians and Hindus and Buddhists and whatever to believe what they believe.

God is responsible for division and confusion and that is obvious.

Uh...
God made PopeADope exactly as he is.
I don't know why, but He did.
I don't think He knows either. I don't think He cares about anything.

How about we take up a collection to buy Matt a giant spider?

In all seriousness, God has been good to me in many ways.

Thank you God. Praise you Lord.

I see all the miserable handicap people around me and all the drug addicts and prostitutes, and I realized, God is a lot nicer to me than he is to the vast majority of the world.

Thank you God!

I feel more sorrow for others than I do for myself.

Then how about this:
Instead of giving your cash to dope addicts give some to the Church. Instead of spending time starting threads about Saint Gadhaffi, volunteer at that Church.
How about that?
Tom
I actually was doing some volunteer work at the cathedral for a while.

I also influence a lot of people at AA meetings. I even speak over the microphone in front of big crowds at the speaker meeting.

A lot of people like what I say at my weekly mental health group as well.

What can I say though, I really like presenting people with interesting facts about Gaddafi. :D

I guess I get more reward from that then I do from volunteering.

I'm told by my sponsor, that I inspire a lot of people. I do want to make a difference! I'm just not very stable.

The only times I ever think of anything I do as worshiping G_d are sometimes when I remember Bahá’u’lláh saying that practicing an occupation in a spirit of service counts as worshiping G_d.

I’m not even sure what “worship” means. I say prayers sometimes. Is that worship? My life revolves around learning to follow Bahá’u’lláh. Is that worship? I do that because I want to. My theory about what makes want to is because He enchanted me, or put a spell on me, or something.

Worship is the highest form of love, adoration, and gratefulness for another. According to the biblical scriptures anyway one must worship God, the Creator of heaven and earth, in spirit and truth and from a pure, loving heart. Loving someone requires knowing that someone.

God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us.1 John 4:16-19

I think your OP is an oyxmoron and you do not know God in truth. Someone who says they hate God cannot and does not worship God.

no I get on my knees and I get on my face and I pay homage to him and I ask him to make me his obedient servant.

I greet him with open arms just begging him to show me how to do his will and all I get is silence.

the Bible is a book that is full of contradictions and says all kinds of stupid things. You do not know that it is the truth!

Muslims think their book is the truth. Neither of you know for sure.

Nothing my eye, Something for sure
I think life is working at something, focusing on what one can do themself to make life better. The little things are what matter most.

I lost my job, and have some disabilities. But i am in the place i should be at, helping someone i love, who is in need.

When the ship falls apart, i want to be the man doing what i can myself, to do whatever it takes to reach my destination.

If there is no glory, or gain, at least i lived to the best of my efforts. If death and tragedy befall me, all i want to do is be at my best self, til the end.

Thats what a knight would do. I do what i can to my utmost, no matter the situation.

And if i cease to exist someday, at least i did so creating inner peace within, for others and myself while i was alive.

I put heart above all things. And i make this life out to be all there ever is. No Gods, no gifts., no rewards.

Only that inner peace.

I think the great thing about existing, is no matter what hole you dig for yourself, no matter what befalls you, you can always rise again from the ashes, and fight for that inner peace.

If this life is all there is, im gonna live it to make heaven right inside my heart. And hopefully those i love will benefit. But if not, then at least i did my best.

I keep reminding myself of that pale blue dot called earth, and that this life is a miracle that it even exists. Why should i expect anything from it? Whatsoever!

And if God exists, God is down and out, and helpless. God will reward what i make of myself. That would be a God. God wouldnt give one care about whether i believe in God, or not. All God would ever ask me is, what did you make of yourself, never mind me!

This confuses me. I can understand believing in God but not liking or respecting him. I can understand worshipping God, if you at least respect him. But worship without that? Why?

There are many concepts of God I couldn't worship, even if I believed. You appear to hold one of them, and even recognise it as such.

Hence my confusion.

I beg God incessantly to just make me his servant and he does not a damn thing.

I'll sacrifice anything for him if he would just speak up.

God probably lives in a mansion of gold and has all the pleasures possible that he wants.

I pushed a guy voluntarily in his wheelchair today. Were I God, I would have him walk.

if I were God I wouldn't be this lazy loser we have for a God who just sits around and does not a damn thing to help out the starving, the suffering, the sexually abused etc.

If I were God there would be no rapists, terrorists, pedophiles and serial killers. Muslims and everyone would know the truth and there would be no confusion.

Unlike God, I actually care about people. I would actually comfort them and speak to them rather than just leave them a book full of violence and contradictions.

Unlike you're worthless God, I would actually help people. How do you know Muslims don't have the truth? You don't know! God hates people so much, that he leaves billions of people confused about who he is.

You are probably just as confused as they are.

Your God hates people and it's obvious.

Any God who would watch his children get raped and sodomized and tortured to death, and do nothing, is a cruel God to the Core.

God wants people to rape and kill each other and kill themselves.

The disgusting God of the Bible and the Koran, burns people in hell for just not accepting a Dogma.

Your God makes me want to vomit and is the epitome of disgusting and cruel as hell!

I recognize that I need God's help.
