. . . If you really want to know, it is in his word(Bible), or ask a priest or pastor to help you. I can tell you what I believe all day long, but I do not presume to speak for God. He has an open line. Make the call.

He has caller ID

Why would he need caller ID if he's omniscient?  Turns out he was busy with someone praying that her daughter would make the cheerleading squad.  That sort of thing apparently takes precedence over preventing a child from being molested and murdered.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

To Quote the Eagles:

"And we pray to our Lord, who we know is American.
He reigns from on high, and speaks to us through middlemen.

And he shepherds his flock, we sing out and we praise his name.
He supports us in war, he presides over football games.

And the right will prevail, all our troubles shall be resolved.
We have faith above all, unless there's money or sex involved!"

I was being flippant with you. I meant thru prayer you can reach him anytime. I am truly sorry for what ever happened that has made you so angry and disappointed with God and Christians. I hope you allow God to help you through it.

Dr. Benjamin Spock had a book about child rearing.   http://www.drspock.com/about/drbenjaminspock/0,1781,,00.html  Some of his ideas were good but, as usual, certain groups took things to the extreme and things went downhill from there.
I had no clue.  :-[

Ya know, my grandson is an atheist and he isn't near as cynical or nasty natured as you are.  He also don't go around putting people down who don't believe like he does.

I am neither angry nor disappointed but I am realistic and if there is a god, he certainly has more important things to do than listen and respond to the ramblings of insignificants like you or me.

Okay, I know better, but I'm jumping in on this one....but, if we have a God, who can create the UNIVERSE (which I earnestly believe)....I'm thinking He can listen to a few gripes by the people He created...if He wants to....I do not think we realize HOW big God is....He is the creator of ALL things that we can comprehend...and He WANTS to have a relationship with us.....at least that is MY belief.

...if He wants to...

And there's the rub of it.  Why would he want to?

QuoteI do not think we realize HOW big God is....He is the creator of ALL things that we can comprehend...and He WANTS to have a relationship with us...

Assuming that if such a great being existed, people could even begin to comprehend his/her/its motivations and or wants is, in my opinion, the epitome of presumptuousness.

Religion has convinced people that there's an invisible man...living in the sky, who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn't want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer and burn and scream until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you and he needs money.

Religion is orgaized christianity: Believing in God is a free choice. I have no trouble with people who choose not to believe in him. My problem is with people who mock, put down and critisize my choice to worship him. I think that should be a two way street.
