if someone tells me to pray to a shoe and my prayers will be answered in "yes, no and wait".. its a pretty preposterous statement, not because of the shoe, but because of the answer it gives... i could wait forever.
if i pray to a shoe for a promotion. and the next day i get a promotion. we know that the shoe didn't do anything, but i would still be inclined to believe that the shoe has some powers.
if i pray to a shoe and the next month i get a promotion, i would know that it was just a coincidence.
if i pray to a shoe and the next year i get a promotion, i know the shoe didn't do anything.
if i pray and it doesnt happen and i die.. i know that the shoe's answer was "no".
that is why praying is pretty illogical and a waste of time

because there is a religious group here in our country that annoys me so much, they're saying that their head (the leader of this religion) is also a GOD, and their members always making a debate with me. i'm fed up with them!

I brush them off. I know the truth and that is all that matters. People who claim to be someting they are not belong in nut houses.

I don't think I would get offended is someone told me, "I am God."
I would have a lot of questions for that person and I think we'd have a pretty cool discussion.
I would want to know, for instance, why God made The Bible so hard to understand...if God really made the Bible and didn't just leave it up for human beings to put together.
I would want to know, "Hey God, can ya clue me in on Global Warming? What's up with that? Why are you allowing it?"
I would ask, "So, who's Hitler hangin' out with now - is he sweatin' from the heat yet or what?"
I would ask him if he would have really REALLY made Abraham kill his son if Abraham hadn't acted so dedicated to the act.
I would ask my new friend, God, "How long did it take to tally up 'indulgences' before Luther put a stop to that practice?" I'd also want to know if God was ever mad at Luther for putting a screeching halt on the money flow back in his day.
I think it would be pretty interesting to hear that someone is God - but I'm not sure that God would just select ME to walk up and start talking to.

No, I would not. In my perspective..we are all creations of our Creator and spiritual beings going through human experiences. If Creator is accepted as a Source of energy/spirit...and our essence also energy...then why wouldn't we be as God is...a co-creator with Creator..a spiritual essence made from Source. We are told that we were 'created in God's image'...in an engergetic sense. So is it really such a big reach that we are all sparks of God...and therefore a mini form thereof?

yes i am..coz' he claim that he is God but then it is not true. I am upset because nowadays many claimed that he is the Lord but the truth he is not God. I hope that someday they will realize that they are wrong of what they think of themselves. God bless to each and everyone of us!
