This is the problem with religous types justifying their beliefs - you're just not very good at it! Literally every single point below is wrong.
But look what has happened on earth since the time God created man?
Because man rebelled and turned his back on his Creator living conditions have been far from ideal.
Since the first recorded history of man looking to God things have only ever got better. There is more order in the world than ever before, people live longer, progress has sped up.
Men have leaned upon their own wisdom and tried to rule the earth without God.
This has resulted in a colossal mess.
Mankind has become divided into nationalistic groups that are constantly quarrelling and fighting among themselves.
Again, go back to when we all had some sort of religous beliefs, and you have to go back so far that the plane and boat had yet to be invented. Anyone foreign would have been treated as alien!
And how do you expect to side-step the fact that the vast majority of nationalistic diveds today are down to religion?
Vast cities have become asphalt jungles where people prey upon one another, acting like unreasoning wild beasts.
Or in fact, acting like all other beasts, all of God's other supposed creations. When was the last time you saw a spider catch a fly, apologise to its parents and then offer to share the carcass with another spider?...
Most countries do have equal opportunities, the people as a whole are attempting to share the combined wealth in welfare states. Oddly enough the countries where this does not happen all have one thing in common - religion.
Violence, crime, injustice and rebellion are everywhere.
I believe even the Bible explains the permitence of these things as necessary in order to make contrast with what is good in the world. With no white, we could not see black, with no violance, we would not know peace.
Man in his folly is even ruining his earthly environment upon which he depends for life.
He is polluting the air and fouling the rivers, lakes and oceans.
He has ruined fertile lands by unwise agricultural practices and has ruthlessly slaughtered vast numbers of wild creatures, causing many to become extinct.
So who was to blame for the dinosaurs? Did they fail to visit Church suitably often?
Most of the supposed damage we have done to the planet peaked a long time ago. And as always, the constant march of technology causes problems, the fixes them. In 50 years the planet could be in serious trouble, sure. But look how much has changed in the last 10 years. It's natural for us to pursue cleverer ways of doing things, you should have faith in our ability to make that facet of our species work in our favour long term. I do dislike you faithless people.
We are changing the environment sure, but thats no sin. The Earth may be very big and very important, but it's no more or less valid as a physical entity than my hair, and I change that all the time.
Indeed, mans effort to rule himself without God has been a monumental failure.
No really, my hair is fine.
Satans has had his day, he has proved to be liar, man cannot rule himself that is plain to see, so God is now going to intervene.
All mans governments have been an utter failure, causing untold suffering.
God's biggest problem when it comes to intervening is a lack of existence. I'm also at pains to blame Satan for anything, as sadly he too is fictional. Actually there are countries that really approve of their Governments, Germany, for example.
If allowed to go on much longer in this age of nuclear weapons and worldwide environmental pollution, men could destroy themselves and their earthly home.
Oddly the bible forgot to mention the trillions of other planets out there. All of which make up the 'actual' world, this is but one. You, for instance, could technically trace your roots back to a land mass that almost certainly no longer exists on this planet, or at least not above water. And back on that once land your ancestors would have felt as isolated and alone as we sometime do on the rock we call Earth.
Man is not so far away (proprtionatly in history as a whole) to setting up basic civilisation elsewhere.
No really, if you cannot tie your rants about God to some sort of current and not made up situation, then how can you expect anyone to listen? Can you not draw some strength and inspiration from God to come back at us with an argument as well structured as we give back? If not, feel free to come over to 'our side'.
