Fred Phelps was right and God ain't messing around anymore; even playing a homosexual in a movie gets you the Matthew Shepard treatment.
Reverend, is OT Monster God guilty of hate crimes?

Originally posted by kirksey957I don't think a "I hate almost every group, not just blacks, Jews, gays" would be a successful defense to a hate crime charge.

Did god tell you that he suffers when he kills children?
I wish he'd end his own suffering, it really is his ability to. He must be a masochist.

eye, people do that to their own all the time, and some with the

for His reasons will deal with the suffering of children and everyone
else and once He does that type of thing will not happen again.

Originally posted by KellyJayThe children are innocent victims. Just because "we", the human race, may have brought it upon "ourselves", it doesn't make every individual responsible. Would you say that if a parent abuses a child, "they" brought it upon "themselves", and therefore if someone had the ability to intervene, they shouldn't?

Yes, there are people out there who intentionally make children suffer. But it certainly isn't normal, and I definitely see it as one of the worst crimes I can imagine. Most people would much prefer not to make children suffer, even though they may not always be able to avoid it due to the circumstances and their own imperfection.

If I would stand by passively when a child is abused even though I would be able to do something about it, I don't think "I'll make sure it won't happen again" would be a good excuse.

I think a god who kills babies due to a "plan" is as ethically bankrupt as the murderer who kill their children.
God supposedly gave humans free will. I would guess he has free will too. If so, then he should use it to stop killing children.
Originally posted by KellyJayGod has never given man the ability to do whatever man wills. We may be able to make someone suffer, but we often aren't able to help someone who is suffering, as much as we may will it. We also can't lift something extremely heavy, even if it's what we want most in our life (for example because there's a child buried under a big rock, and lifting the rock would save the life of the child).

that was changed by us, and it is us, who go out of our way to steal,
kill, rob, and cause pain and discomfort to ourselves. You blame
God, because God allows us to die in this life time when there is
something far worse to be avoided and He is saving us from that?
He is stopping all of that, when He does it, it will not be a reprieve for
evil to come again, but an end to it forever, so in the mean time He
is saving as many as will come.
