So, here's a problem with being a Christian (or any religion at all, to be honest). And I don't want to be seen as picking on Christians, but that's what I was brought up as, so 'better the devil you know'...
Don't worry, I hate Islam just as much, but I don't think I have the authority to speak on it yet...But you guys are nuts too.
So-
Jesus is love, right? And he answers prayers, right? And he takes care of children all over the world. 'Jesus Loves the Little Children' comes to mind.
So, Okay...what about non-christian children? Does God not care about them? 1000's and 1000's of children died during the Holocaust. Why didn't Jesus step in? Why didn't he ride down on his firey chariot and 'fix it'? Did the children not pray properly? Was it because the children were mainly Jewish? Does god have a grudge agains the Jews? Is God just a dick?
Because, see, what it comes down to is there is either a God who helps you out and rewards good behaviour, REGARDLESS of faith...or there is no God. There is a third option, a God who does exist, but doesn't intervene for the good of anyone...but what good is that? That's like having a 911 operator that just whispers sweet nothings in your ear as your wife lays bleeding out on the pavement, the result of a drunken driving accident...as the light dims in her eyes and she takes her last breath, the ineffectual good for nothing piece of shit on the phone says 'Make sure you tithe 10% to your church!'
So yeah, you see where I'm going with this...If God exists, he's a piece of shit. But come on...use your brain.
Of course, I guess Christian Bale Jesus might have a thing or two to say on the subject on why he let all those children die in the Holocaust-
