Is Bill Gates more powerful than God?
60 Answers
Now, admittedly I didn't see the programme but apparently Bill Gates is going to use $24billion of his own money towards good causes. Say, for example, two people get an almost incurable disease ie, a lot of money will pay for an operation to cure it. Now, one person prays to God and the second writes a letter to Bill, and receives the amount of money for the operation. Who do you feel would survive and would you take any comfort from it?

For me, I see B Gates as a 'Tekky' (someone who loves putting these gadgets and programs together). It so happened he hit the jackpot here (God's hand...??)

'God works in mysterious ways' is the ultimate cop-out. It grants God merit when required, and it absolves him from blame when required. He's got it all sewn up - he can't lose! Bill Gates is a successful human being who chooses to spend his money as he wishes.
If I needed that operation, I'd rather trust Bill to come up trumps than God.

Bill Gates is not the first or the last person with that much of wealth in this world. In fact he is not even a fraction of the few history tells us about. Few out of them claimed to be gods due to that power or wealth.
However few did use their God given wealth for good purposes. It is God's will whoever he chooses for these things. Now if you start believing in these people as God or more affordable and acceptable than God himself only because you can see them and not Him, then only result is that they passed the test and you failed.

Well said Waldo � You are today answering your own questions for some reason. If someone could code it right the first time then where would this idea come from that I said that Human do not know every thing, they may try and become better but will never be as complete as God is. Not even a fraction of that. Shame, few people may never learn that.
So the gist of the Q is that the non-believers would bow and pander to the accumulation of wealth and self-centred curing, rather than to any spiritual sense of well being and sharing?
Personally I would welcome any money from Bill Gates being sent to exactly those that need it most. My needs would come after them if there is some left over, all well and good, but I will still pray to God either way.
