If God exists, why does He hide from us?

Post Reply New Topic

My husband has taught our kids that god is everywhere (omnipotent and omnipresent). So my PDD son loves to tell everyone that god is in his stomach.

That's the main reason Superman keeps his identity a secret because people would ask favors of him endlessly. Superman is a fictional god after all, so maybe the real god hides for the same reason.

God also probably thinks it's funny how atheists are often more obsessed with talking about him than actual believers or Agnostics.

And god was later flushed down the toilet and now dwells in the sewer for he is everywhere! *dodges the lightning bolt*

LOL! Yes! God is in poopie too! Didn't you know?
Animal poop is great fertilizer for the crops

A perfect God can't reveal himself.

If he were to reveal himself, this would be an action that took place in time.
If God moved through time, he would change.
If God changed, then either he was not perfect to begin with, or he is not perfect now.

Hence how life was created!! It was great fertilizer for the tree of knowledge he originally didnt want Adam and Eve to eat the fruit out of risk of ecoli poisoning that is why he said they would die!

Your next occupation will be reformist Sunday School teacher!

The archeological evidence point to the foundation of Judaism being polytheistic, and turning monotheistic about the time of the Babylonian Invasion. God even had a wife.

The birth of monotheism, was more about not want the enemy's god worshiped.

Oh, here He is!

What if God is in matter including certain plants and mushrooms and we're supposed to know God by eating him? Yet, the government bans these substances because they don't need people distracted from being wage slaves by this kind of direct spirituality?

People might have a sudden mental and spiritual reboot and decide they're wasting their life working in factories and sitting in rushhour traffic. Government and Corporate interests would rather all of us be in a stupor watching horrible reality shows.

(spoken) In the beginning, there was just God, So God made man in his own image... a little image that is.
Man asked God, "My God, how great art thou?" And to show man his great power, they played a game.

(and then the song....)

God and man played hide-and-go-seek.
God told man, "Now man, don't you peek."
man counted to ten, and then looked around,
But God was nowhere, nowhere to be found.

Man looked on the mountain. He looked across the sea.
He looked in the stars, in the skies, in the trees.
He looked in the wind, in the sun, on the ground,
But God was nowhere, nowhere to be found.

So man made an image and he gave it a name,
But this man-made god brought nothing but pain.
Man started shouting "God! Where can you be?"
I'm right here man, inside of thee."

Oh, man was so shocked, he was really surprised.
'Cuz he looked everywhere, but right there inside.
Now when man found God, man found love,
And man found out what we all are made of.

God is in you and God is in me.
To love all of God is to love humanity.
God is in you and God is in me.
To love all of God is to love humanity.

God and Man Lyrics

^^^

He's in the witness protection plan since he knows what happened to Hoffa.
Or he has gambling debts and alimony and is laying low.

or he is everywhere and nowhere.

God seems to have left the receiver off the hook and time is running out.
