God and Moses

When Moses went up on the mountain and God told him to spread the word that there is only on loving and caring god, Moses was perplexed as how he would accomplish such a task. Moses realized he could only travel on foot or by donkey so he knew there was no way he could reach all the people in America, Asia, and the aborigines of Australia. Moses never figured out why God would pick only one man to do such an enormous task. It would be centuries before God would tell another man, Muhammad, to spread the word.

Before Moses and Muhammad could spread the word millions of people perished and were condemned to burn in Hell, forever because they had never heard of God. Why did God wait thousands of years to expose himself, and then only to two men? God says he is loving and merciful. His system of only telling two men to spread the word seems inadequate. Also the two prophets seem to have misinterpreted what God meant. I suggest God convene a committee to write a new operations manual on how people should live.

A friend said Islam is a religion that advocates violence so much that Muslims kill their own kind. My friend asked me to give an example of Christians killing other Christians. I told him about the centuries of war in Europe. I told him about the civil war in America where thousands of Christians killed each other as they prayed for their God to make them victorious and to smite their enemies. It is a good thing God did not answer all their prayers or the United States would have been destroyed.

The Koran, Torah, Bible, and the U.S. Constitution were all written by men. The first three tell others how to live. The last says one can live as they damn well please. The first three gives power to groups. The last one gives power to the individual.
