The idea for this list of questions was a post by Jonah Moore over at freethoughtblogs.net. I thought it was an interesting concept, like an interview with God. Some questions remain in original form, and some I changed to reflect what I might want to ask...
25 Questions for God
1. What are you made of?
2. If you made man in your own image, do you have reproductive organs as we do? What do you use them for?
3. Why do men have nipples?
4. Do you have nipples?
5. The Bible clearly shows you have a range of emotions, like humans do. Some emotions, like anger, are negative, can cause harm, and show a lack of impulse control. How can a perfect being lose control of his emotions?
6. Why do you work so hard to make yourself unseen?
7. If we are all your children, what was so special about Jesus?
8. Out of the billions of people that have ever lived on the planet in history, why have you chosen only a few to communicate with and why mislead them about the true nature of earth? Why tell them things that we would eventually find out to be false, like geocentrism and flat earth?
9. Why did you make the world appear to have evolved?
10. Why did you punish us for having sinned when you made it in our nature to do so?
11. At what point did you stop talking directly to people?
12. Are we the only planet with life?
13. If so, why such a huge universe that looks like a leftover explosion?
14. Do you intervene in people's lives directly, or do things happen based on countless variables as it appears?
15. If you do intervene as people claim, how do you decide who to help? For instance, what would make you intervene in a football game but let a child die of starvation?
16. Why do you require worship? It seems sort of low self-esteemish don't you think?
17. How many prayers do you require to produce a positive result for an ill friend or family member?
18. Why can't/won't you communicate with us directly?
19. Why make scripture so obscure and so difficult to interpret that people are divided on what you really mean? A perfect being should have the ability to communicate clearly I would think.
20. If you have always been, does that mean your memory of your past is never ending?
21. Did you really mean all those terrible things you said in the Old Testament/Torah and/or Qu'ran?
22. Did you really intend for women and children to be property, and for old men to force female children into marriage and sexual relations?
23. What's the back story on black holes?
24. How does gravity work?
25. If you could do it all over again, what would you change?
