If You Were God

[nailit]

How would you show mankind that you
1) existed?
2) That you want the best for your creation?
3) That YOUR religion is the right one?


Personally, I would create a system (been God, I could do what I want) that informs everyone on Earth, that I am God...
You wouldnt know how, but *I* would, being omniscient etc
That everyone on Earth knows me.
And they have the right to reject me if they want (without fear)

If I was God, I certainly wouldnt be insecure and worried about how people worshipped me,,,unless I was a totally insecure sort of being.

Ive existed for billions of years, worshippless anyway.
Why would I want a few thousand years of worship?

If I was God.....
Id have something concrete to say.....
(not just interpretations)

If I was god I would probably sit back and watch the show as it unfolds over millions of years. I may lay bets on which group, if any, would survive the untold damage humans have done to this planet and the rest of the universe. I would be hugely amused at antics of those that think they are particularly special.....

[davebro]

just like supposed alien visitors I would reveal myself in all my glory

[Buenchico]

>>> If You Were God . . . ?

That's a ruddy silly question!

I AM God!

[jourdain2]

If I were God I would want people to know about me. Either I spoke to and encouraged people or, if recalcitrant, punished them a bit (a few thunderbolts). I answered this before and it wiggled and I lost it all (better than what follows). A kind god gives rules and so on, but understands when someone doesn't know the rules, explains (through others).

A feeling of my presence would surround all those who are working to spread understanding of my existence and they would spread it to others. Rather lost my thread, but there you are. :)

Seriously

[Canary42]

1) I would appear on TV frequently with encouraging bulletins
2) I would employ a Special Advisor to Carrie the message
3) I would claim I was world-beating

[naomi24]

If I were God I'd keep quiet. I would be ashamed of myself.

[douglas9401]

Easiest way would be to decree that the cross was redundant and to be replaced with a straitjacket.

That should get the message across.

[johnk]

Stop all the suffering.

//How would you show mankind that you
1) existed?//

I initially wrote a long answer to this question, but have finally honed it down to one word; Nature.

[naomi24]

Khandro, how does nature show that God exists?

[10ClarionSt]

Are you feeling ok today Nailit?

[douglas9401]

All things bright and beautiful, Naomi, get with the programme. :-)

[naomi24]

Hmmmm .... but that doesn't mention the nasty bits of nature, douglas.

[davebro]

If there were a god - why would he allow extinction?

[anneasquith]

Asking a bunch of atheist. ‘ if you were god’ , and they are replying !!! . Lol

[davebro]

I mean you go through millenia creating dinosaurs then wipe the whole lot out with an asteroid strike - doesn't make any sense.

[douglas9401]

Anything can happen when playing cosmic marbles, davebro.

[naomi24]

Anneasquith, do you have an answer to this question or did you just pop along to criticise again as you so often do?

[anneasquith]

How can you say what you would ‘ do’ if you were God, when some of you don’t believe he existed ? When I’m Santa clause............ I will bring world peace . ;-)

[naomi24]

anneasquith, It matters not whether a believer or a non-believer answers this question. It is hypothetical as are ALL the answers - obviously.
