I consider myself agnostic and do not rule out the idea of a God even if I don't believe in a caring God. However, I do have some belief in karma in that I find that if you try to always be nice, people will be nice back. However if you're a complete arsehole, chances are you will get shit upon. As for children dying in Africa, being born with genetic conidtions etc., that is my top reason for not believing in a caring God. If there IS a God who is bothered about us, the following song sums up my feelings

All so that they can gain more sympathy, and thus make more money, when they are forced to beg on the streets.
You think those kids get what they deserve?

That would be a beautiful world to live in, but it doesn't explain why psychopath are so successful in life and charisma.

I'm sorry I'm having trouble parsing that, could you elaborate?

What I mean is that I have seen no really bad people who are charming like the psychopaths you point out to me so obviously so far, I've been lucky enough not to run into one...or maybe I have but just don't know about their hobby of strangling people and dumping the bodies. :p I have seen bad people get a good dose of karma though admittedly in the majority of cases, said people had no charm.I obviously know no psychopaths, as I've seen other bad people shit upon.That would be a beautiful world to live in, but it doesn't explain why psychopath are so successful in life and charisma.

Two men build a ship one of stones the other of glass, yet one the other neither or both may reach the stars let alone for the startDiscuss!
The faster they build the faster they go but it so seems that recurring patterns emerge and apparent stationarity occurs in which looping behavior may take place.
What I'm trying to say is that In my books the times someone wins or loses depends on factors outside of god's intervention. But everyone tends to attribute fault or credit to god and of course everyone is trying to establish a direct link to gain indirect influence and start a positive feedback cycle.
I personally do not look for minds souls nothing, and it is inconsequential the outcome of any eventuality.
From my perspective it does seem like people would rather not be people if they knew what people truly were. But again as for me I personally do not care.

Many people just want the love and protection to know they're safe while getting away with whatever they do by saying a minor sorry and not being held accountable for their actions, but that implies a state of ignorance the more aware one becomes the more the weights of the sins cast on one, until one realizes that ignorant sheep eating sheep and praying for sheep's meat in sheep's cloathing is nothing more than an absurdity, and yet that is what most desire, so it is that they would rather remain ignorant and die then learn that they've been eating sheep all along will only increase their rate of consumption through time.

The Infinite is something to resonate with and pray to.
But A version of god is not.
The version of god in the old testament is too dark, gloomy, guilt inducing, fear inducing, and boring, and life nullifying. What day is this old testament god worshipped on? Saturday? What planet is connected to saturday? Saturn. What are the attributes of Saturn? It's color is black, it is a deep, dark, controlling god, that never has any fun and only induces guilt. Look this up and verify the multi-culture descriptions of this planet.
Christianity says they worship the sun, but they are so mangled that they do not have a true description of their god. It all is from the old testament and thus still saturn with some new attributes to try to fool the people, such as forgiveness and some sun attributes. But the heart is still the dark gloom of saturn worship and connection.
I say take your power back. Uninvite this wrong planet's influence on your life. And connect with Jupiter.
Jupiter is the god of good spirits. Jovial is from latin Jove for Jupiter. He is a King that teaches his people and doesn't reprimand them for their wrongs. He is so confident and knowing that he doesn't need to get jealous of other gods, because he is the King God.
If you want to connect to a planet's influence to the ultimate source and the Infinite do it through a more life benefiting planet such as Jupiter, or Venus. But our western society has been pummeled into this fear lifestyle of Saturn worship.
A new day has to come and we need to change our focus and awareness to a better planet.
Jupiter forever!
