I don't have much time to write this out so it might be sloppy D:
Of course there are people that truly think that liking a picture on Facebook has actually helped someone and donating 5 cents to a Mcdonalds charity will get a child the medical attention they might need.
But is doing that better than nothing? Evertos did make a good point. Many charities do take a good portion of the money for themselves. Some lie and say that it goes towards the "cost" of running the charity but there are many charities that don't ask for any type of currency. Some charities only ask for materials such as clothes.
But we can talk about charities later =P. But if God did abandon us, wouldn't that just mean Satan would completely take over? Some say he won't physically kill you but instead he uses emotions such as anger and greed to overpower someone and that "someone" will go out and harm others.
Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm just going by what some of my die hard Catholic and Christian friends have told me lol. But if God represents love and he truly does love us, would he abandon us? What if people were raised with different beliefs. Would he stop loving those people and simply abandon them?
Personally if I love someone I'll do everything I can to help them. I'll jump in front of a missile if it meant that they had the tiniest bit of chance of surviving. And I'm sure many or most of you would go to great measures to help someone you truly care about. Even if it meant giving up your own life.
Especially if it is your child. Someone that you have created, like God has "created" us. This is what gets me. If he created us, and he loves us. Why won't he guide us when we need his guidance the most? There are people suffering and all they need is "guidance" so they won't die. But where is it? Many people across the world pray and wake up every morning trying to better themselves but there is no help. Or is it too much for an all powerful and all knowing being?
I personally think when someone is desperate, they can easily guide themselves. I think if someone truly wants something, such as their dream job for example. They'll work for it and get it. They'll guide themselves and a lot of it will be trial and error. But they'll eventually make it to their dream job if they truly work for it.
Life is what YOU make it. If you don't try and put no work in. You'll have nothing and life will just spit in your face. We might be looking at monitors all day but we still have opportunities that a couple billion people don't have. And I'm sure most of you don't plan on sitting at home for the rest of your life, wasting away.
Maybe God isn't loving at all and he truly doesn't care about us. If that was what people preached I think we'd be better off. Less people would rely on such faith and do whatever they can to become a better person. I've noticed a lot of people do kind things in the name of religion or God, but not because it's the right thing to do.
But on the same note, many people would probably commit suicide because that faith is the only reason they wake up in the morning. But that's what we're here for. If you see someone fall you don't just look at them, you help them. You help them get back up and continue on. And that same person may help you when you fall, and you will fall. We all have our dark moments in life and I doubt any of us could get through it without the help of someone.
If you say you have live the worst part of your life and got through it by yourself. Then that wasn't the worst and I hope you're prepared for the **** storm that WILL happen. Over the years I've noticed that people need each other. Non of us would of survived if it wasn't for someone giving us shelter and food. We depend on each other and this "guidance" won't come from God. It'll come from someone else.
Anyways I might edit this later, don't really have time to read it over :'|. Sorry if something doesn't make sense or what not, just point it out and I'll try to clarify when I come back. :]
