Dennis McKinsey once said....

If God kills, lies, cheats, discriminates, and otherwise behaves in a manner that puts the Mafia to shame.

That's okay, he's God.

He can do whatever he wants.

Anyone who adheres to this philosophy has had his sense of morality, decency, justice and humaneness warped beyond recognition by the very book that is supposedly preaching the opposite.

John Dietrich:
The President of the United States summons the nation to church on Thanksgiving Day to give thanks to "Almighty God" for the abundant harvest and all other blessings.

But what has Almighty God -- I have no desire to appear irreverent -- what has Almighty God as a personal being to do with the harvests?

If it is he who produces our crops, then being Almighty there should never be a failure of crops.

But since crops frequently fail, it follows that there is no Almighty person in charge of them -- unless he brings failure purposely.

Therefore, if God is to be thanked for large crops, he must be blamed when the crops are a failure. . . .

If God sends the rain and the sunshine which develops and ripens our wheat, who sends the storms and the insects which destroy much of it?

And if he sends both, then why not thank him for one and blame him for the other?

well, manusia bisa dibilang the greatest failure of God's creation. gimana enggak, mereka diciptakan dengan satu kelebihan dibanding ciptaan-Nyayang lain. manusia diciptakan dengan tambahan "akal pikiran". dan terbuat dari tanah yang letaknya di bawah, tempat di injek2 orang, tempat anjing dan kucing buang kotoran, tapi tempat pohon-pohon tumbuh juga.

giliran hujan ngeluh minta terang, giliran cerah, eh minta hujan, gak ada abis2nya permintaan dan keluhan manusia. tapi gue salut juga ama God ini, gimana enggak, saabr banget ngeladenin keinginan manusia, walaupun kadang keinginan manusia ini mulai dari merusak lingkungan, sampe mempertanyakan keberadaan-Nya. dengan kesabaran full speed. Tuhan cuma nyuruh asisten-asistennya ngingetin manusia.

but still, manusia punya hak buat mengindahkan peringatannya...
