Weather

Weather is unpredictable, and filled with many random events.  Certainly, the sun, oceans, terrain and many factors affect it, but the weather is unpredictable and is one of those things that God is supposed to have a hand in.  And when the weather turns bad, the God of all Christians, Jews, and Muslims can protect them from it.  God punishes the unfaithful with storms.  Does He?

Virtually no Muslims, Buddhists, Mormons, or Hindus are killed by tornadoes, yet Tornado alley strikes right through the heart of America’s Bible belt.  Western Europe is the second-most pummeled area by tornadoes.  Dozens to hundreds of Christians are killed every year by tornados, and the horrific tragedies we see in the news now must tug at everyone’s faith in God.  Is God punishing Christians for something?   The God we hear about is a good God and protects his people, loves them, and loves children.  As we look around the country and the globe, bad weather happens totally randomly.  We don’t see signs of love, compassion, or caring in it.

Tornados, floods, wild-fires, deadly cold.  These kill mothers, children, believers, and unbelievers alike.  And when they strike, no intellectually honest person can say God did a loving job.  What a F4 tornado or a Cat 5 hurricane does to people’s lives is horrible, and brings any loving person to tears.  We all would have stopped the storm and if we could, would spare the children, women, and men from being crushed, drown, and ripped apart.  We mere mortals have such compassion and God is infinitely times more caring.  Where is He?

The fact is, God is nowhere to be found.  As families huddle in their basements praying to God that He spare them from the tornado, the sad truth is, no one is listening.  In fact, tornadoes kill more Christians than any other religion.  Not because God hates Christians, but tornado alley runs right through the Bible belt of America.  Why can’t God stop a tornado?  Because he isn’t.

Does God Exist?

The proof of God is that same as any other proof.  If there is overwhelming evidence, you can be certain it is real.  If there is no evidence of God, then you can be sure we created God, and He exists only in our minds.  Look at how tornadoes decimate some of the most God-fearing people on earth.  Why?  Because He is not.
