Idea for an election

(1/3) > >>

musicman:
It seems that many feel that I voted for God in my early voting post.  However, I mistakenly voted for a human being in that matter.  But this brings up an important question:  How do you feel God is running His creation?  I constantly hear about those who complain: "oh, God hates me" or "why me, God" (I've said that one many times).  So, I've thought many long hours for this and have decided:  Perhaps we should have an election for god.

Who out there would like to run for god?  Remember, I'm proposing that the office of god need not be a dictatorship (aaahh, "God created all so He should be able to run it all").  Well, if you think that we need a regime change, then maybe it's time that you run for god.  Everyone gets one vote (including the angels, and, yeah, you too God).  And we can have a multiple party system put in place.  I was thinking, one could be the eternal hell party for all except a few, a universal salvation party, an annihilation for all except a few party, a party where everyone is required to sit in circles singing folk tunes with some guy named Raffi, only to stay dead forever at our demise (that would be the New Age Hippie party).  Ect.

Those are just a few ideas for party affiliation.  However, don't be deceived.  Because once someone wins the office of god, he/she will become a dictator in how their recomendation for after life is carried out.  For instance, the Universalist god, if elected (improbable in this world) may require one to suffer severe judgment for petty little things.  Imagine having to watch TBN or Different Strokes or shower with the Golden Girls for thousands of years, just because you ran streak naked down the center of the football field at halftime.  Or maybe the eternal hell candidate wouldn't make hell so bad.  Maybe you'll be given marshmellows to roast in the flames.  There are many possibilities.

But we would mostly be electing a new god to make our idiot carnal lives more pleasing.  god may make traffic better in the cities.  god might make all food (including your mother n laws') edible for human consumption.  Or maybe, you just want the fishing to be better.  Most importantly, god could make everyone a millionaire, even if you choose not to work.  The new god could do this.  So, if you're ready for change, your ready for a new god.

Hi, and now I am confused, Musicman you ask, How do you feel God is running His creation? My question is, How can God run His creation if He has already predetermined everything that will happen in life. Predetermined would mean, God cannot change anything, everything will happen the way He already made it happen before the very beginning. And that would mean that your next months prayers cannot be answered if they are not already answered. And I also hope that I am the only one confused on this. Predetermined would mean, it does not matter who wins the election, people are playing out the election and God has already made the winner. I have now learnt to do this, what ever happens in life good or bad, I accept it, or forgive it, then get over it, and forget about it.

Having to watch TBN and Diffrent Strokes for 1000 thousand years.  Now that's funny.   Every time I see " Jan, wipe a tear from my eye, Pink haired Crouch", I have the urge to stick one of those tightly rolled up paper cone things through the T.V., and make myself some cotton candy.

Love in Christ
