Basically Satan questioned God's right to rule mankind. Since then many men have questioned God's right to rule mankind. Man tries to rule themselves, and look at the results. We have a multitude of corruption, hypocrisy, and evil, all from our leaders no less! With time, this evil world will end up destroying itself, which is what God will step in to stop, after finally proving that Mankind is incapable of ruling itself.
Matthew 24:21,22
"21 for then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again. 22 In fact, unless those days were cut short, no flesh would be saved; but on account of the chosen ones those days will be cut short."
God would have the power to kill God. God would have the knowledge that his free creation would never be free with God existing. God would love his free creation enough to kill God.
The entire idea of Christianity is stomach turning pretentiousness.
Especially as a black man.
It makes me sick that the African-American community has been fearmongered into so heavily integrating this within our culture.
Thousands of years ago, while God was apparently performing undeniable acts of the Divine in the Middle East, he apparently hid himself from the Africans, allowing them to worship many gods through no fault of their own.....they all went to hell.
So to remedy this, after thousands of years the merciful omnopotent master decided to enslave a portion of the African community and finally allow them to be saved(or be killed) by being converted by their wonderful white slave masters.
Alas, it is no wonder the whites saw and many still do see blacks as second class citizens. Even their precious God did apparently....and he can do no wrong. Ergo racism and classism is perfectly justifiable.
Point is. Christian gOd ain't all flowers and rainbows. He likes to be entertained just like we (humans) do. But what's cool is he can throw down a war and put it on payperview for all of the heavenly host and the denizens of hell to watch, instead of just a fight between Mayweather Jr. And Manny Pacquiao... My bet is he's the bookie too.
Also that isn't any more ret***** than the millions of people who say sh*** like, I've seen a woman get cured of a terminal illness! Must be Jesus.

@TheFisherman,
If the Christian God, so they say, is going to judge us when we all die one day based on our actions, and has "commands" he expects us to follow, it is only reasonable that in return, he helps us to do good. People aren't born into equal situations. It's very easy for someone in the first world to live a godlier life than it is for someone in 3rd world countries. So would a person who had to be dishonest, steal, and stuff in order to LIVE be any less godly then someone who didn't because that person was born to two middle class working parents?
We already went through your moronic point and concluded that you are a dumb***.
This topic isn't about a "higher power" it's about a specific god in a specific religion.

This was basically my point from earlier for the group of people who don't believe in a higher being because "bad things wouldn't happen if there was one".
I've seen someone write that they're an atheist solely because their grandmother, a selfless loving woman, died of cancer.
