If there is a god he doesn't do as much as we think he does. And every time he sees "christians" bicker among themselves over what he MIGHT have meant, instead of doing something about the issues at hands, he facepalms and runs off to play ...angry birds on his i Phone 7.

I think America's biggest problem is that America looks at things in a big picture as it pertains to their life, or they look at their life specifically. Whether than looking at how their life affects others.

If a couple divorces, that doesn't go to church, it's easy for a church going couple to assume god wasn't a part in their relationship--otherwise there would not have been a divorce.

If a couple goes to church and gets a divorce, then stops going to church, it's assumed that couple has "lost their way" in the lord.

If two buildings are "attacked" by planes, we blame terrorists--not the government who had full control. The whole time. And--just a note--four buildings fell that day. One with NO plane.

We believe what TV,the internet, the news (run by the government), and our preachers, tell us to believe. That's not "faith."

If Americans are poor it's because 1) they're lazy and so we hate them, 2) God decided to give them AIDS, lay them off, send them to war, or some other shitty circumstance, or perhaps 3) God does dictate certain paths in life, in hopes that maybe someday we Americans will wake up, give a fuck and do something about it. Whether it's exploding buildings, or men, women and children sitting outside in the cold wondering who god is and why he hates them.

Romans 8:28 All things work out for good to those who love and trust in God and are called according to his purpose.

Everything's going to be okay, but if it's not okay just then, it's probably your fault and only you can fix it.

So maybe homeless people can get out of their situation. Maybe you can stop dropping f bombs, or watching porn, or gambling, or drinking, or whatever else your flavor of Christianity deems is "wrong." Maybe you can, but it's hard. Maybe it'd be nice if someone tried to help. A lot of someones even. Maybe that homeless man prays every night, and you can't remember when you have.

Or maybe he's happy where he is, burning tiny Gideon Bibiles for warmth. Hoping when he dies he doesn't go to the same Heaven as all the selfish "Christians" who pass him by.
