Or perhaps it's when you assume the things you say for fact that displeases people.

And how do you know that he is active but doesn't want people to observe the results? How do you know that what these people are asking for are unreasonable to God and that he does not want to deliver? Do you know the divine reasoning behind all of His actions?

What is to say you cannot be happy whilst following a religion? Some could argue that they are happier with it. Well, after life if there is one is eternity, your life is 0-120 years, at a push, I think I know which I would be happier for.

I don't say thinks to displease people, people are generally displeased when I say unconventional things.

The average person generally doesn't ask for things for others. I cannot begin to understand His mind, it is like a cockroach trying to see into our mid.

[QUOTE] And what beliefs have you rejected then good sir?[QUOTE]

I have to say I have rejected the belief that we need to be "successful," which generally means a slave to labor, wages, and religion.

[QUOTE] Well who is to say that they aren't?[QUOTE]

Christ's ideas are seen in writings before his time, he just gathered the ones he believed best to guide people through life.

[QUOTE]Or perhaps there was nothing put onto pen and paper during them years?[QUOTE]

You're gonna tell me that nothing happened in the 13 years of the person the majority of the world has accepted as the messiah, that nothing happened?

[QUOTE]And how do you know this? Oh great master of conspiracy![QUOTE]

Research and you will find that the Bible has books banned from them that were once included, at one point research instead of assume.

As for the final comment, I am not saying that we cannot be happy in a religion, blindly following what a book that has been heavily edited. Many people are, I am not.

One thing to add, it was 18 years cut out of Christ's life, not 13, sorry
