i think even if he did put us in danger (and practicing christians would believe that you wouldn't be in danger even if it seemed so) it would be for a purpose.

Like i said before that is not god putting those people in danger that is other people putting them in danger.take the war torn country thing for example,we have out goverments to thank for that and not god,iam not a heavy religious person but i think to blame god is an easy excuse.

Well I'm sure glad I didn't help out when the tsunami struck Asia then if it was mans' fault.
If everything is mans' fault, man is God's fault. God made everything. Man, Devil, souls, good/evil, the desire to be good/evil, Jeffery Archer, no? That is assuming there is a God, which we are. God made the bad people or at least he made the people who wanted to be bad.
You can't have it both ways. If God made everything then he is ultimately responsible for everything. In my opinion anyway.

That was a natural disaster and also mother nature getting her own back and telling us to wake up and look what we are doing to her,look how much damage we have done to her.Also if you read in the bible this is the start of the end.The world will flood itself killing all living things and only a select few will survive/be choosen to live.Soon the whole planet will be flooded in years to come and this again is mans fault and we are doing nothing about it.
Other signs that the world id about to end is that the world will have enough power to blow its self up and the anti christ will have shown himself.

O.k......so taking this one step at a time...(i'm bored too - we crazy sp people and our fun weekend huh?) do you believe mother nature is another God type deity thing? that there is God and Mother Nature? who came first? who is more poewerful? and why would mother nature take it out on poor people and not the rich nations that are fucking up the world?

Well here is an extract from something i read a while ago
As for Man's role in all this. There's just this.
We have been fucking around with Mother Nature for far too long. And right now, Mother Nature is getting her own back.
I reckon she has every right to as well.
After all, what have we done thus far? Nothing much...oh...besides
1. Cutting down Her trees and devastating the landscape.
2. Levelling Her mountains
3. Killing off several species of Her animal kingdom in less time it takes to build a house.
4. Polluting Her air.
5. Making holes in Her ozone.
6. Contaminating Her oceans with oil and toxic chemicals.
7. Melting Her ice caps.
Heck...we even go around killing each other.
Oh no no no. No Mother would ever sit back quietly and see all this shit happening in Her house.
When the camel's back is broken, Mother Nature is gonna take us over her knee and whoop our asses so hard, we wouldn't be able to take a crap for days.
