If there is a God, most definitely. There are too many horrible things going on in the world that I cannot fathom God justifying. But, it's God - maybe he's good reasons that are beyond my comprehension. Either God is not benevolent, omnipotent , or has a very twisted sick of humor. The Other Side of the Coin

Sure. If there were a god he had at least indirectly created me, so he wouldn't mind a little constructive criticism. Of course he would be quite bored, because of this whole omniscience thing, but I'm sure he would be understanding. For my criticism, may I quote from New Model Army: Dear God - what is this evil that we've done? Is it that we wanted more than you gave why did you put us then in this smalltown grave humility - is that what you want? why did you make us then the way you did?? yes, we have pride is this our sin?

If you assume that God existed and that he created me, then he would have had to have created me with the potential to criticize him, and since he is omniscient, he would know whether or not I would ever criticize him. Not only this, but he would know exactly what I would say. In this way, if God existed, it would not be necessary for me to say anything to him. He would already know. Then again, this creates another paradox since I would never say it in the first place and thus he could know what I would say... Damn time paradoxes. Side: Yes
If god did exist and he were right in front of me right now I'd be like "Dude...what's with all this suffering in the world?" and he'd be like "Dude...sorry, I have a bit of a drinking problem...and I get a little emotional in my decision making. You got three fiddy by any chance?" Side: Yes
Depends on the God or Goddess. Tor has his hammer, Medusa turns you into stone, Shiva wrecks your stuff to make room for whatever and the god better known as God puts anyone in hell who dares question his eternal love. Humans created their gods with great care. You're not supposed to be able to criticize them. That's the whole point of being a god. Lets travel in time and criticize the people who came up with this nonsense... Side: Yes

I know this is kind of geeky but surely you can have a single if-statement encapsulating god's equality to being perfect and all powerful? if (god!=null && god==perfect && god==allPowerful) { // etc } else { // etc } You gotta be careful posting code on the web dude. There are geeks everywhere! Side: Yes
I assume when we talk about God here, we talk about the Christian God. IF he did exist (which he doesn't), I wouldn't criticise God. The God of the Old Testament has got to be the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it, petty, vindictive, unjust, unforgiving, racist, an ethnic-cleanser urging his people on to acts of genocide. How can you criticise a being like that? Side: No

Sorry but, uh, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, WRONG! Everything you just said is wrong. I don't want to open up a can of worms here, so lets take it one step at a time. How is god unjust? I can understand where you are coming from, because most Christian religions are flawed and contradict themselves all the time. But based on my beliefs that is all wrong. Side: your wrong

First id like to make it clear, that God is as real as you and me. and why would you wanna criticize God, his will is perfect and what he wants goes. We ourselves are to blame for what happens on this world, because we are cold hearted and God has constantly warned us that bad things would come if we kept on sinning, all that is happpening on this earth is a product of our selfishness and pride, because we think that we are to good for God and that we dont need his help Side: No

In the book of Job in the Bible, Job criticized the Lord for the destruction of his house, the deaths of his children, theft of his livestock, and the way things were turning out for him. He thought that God was mistakenly punishing him when he was a righteous man. God responded to him by asking him a series of questions which left him awed with the knowledge of God. And finally realizing that God knew what he was doing and was in control of his life, Job repented in dust and ashes. Even if we don't realize why God allows bad things to happen in the world, we must realize that he has a specific reason for what he does. And if we do try to criticize God, I think we will find out that he knows more than we understand. Side: No
im intrested into finding out how many people would actuly critise god onto how bonevolient he is. if their was actually a God would you respect him? would you become a follower? or.....would it make u angry that ther is a person who sits and watches as the world goes down hill with the power to intervene. so my question is simple. would you respect god for making what the world is today?? Side: No
"Of course he would be quite bored, because of this whole omniscience thing, but I'm sure he would be understanding." did God create the world for his entertainment to watch how humans will act towards each other? and the omniscience part, if he he all knowing then this means he knows everything their is to know about the future of each individual human and that we have not got our own destiny, we have been set an path to follow without our knowledge.
