Given that God is also omnipotent, would not a rational, loving, and fair minded person be petitioning God even now, and encouraging everyone else to petition God, to control the hurricanes and prevent them doing damage (except to evil-doers)? If the rational, loving, and fair minded person does not do this, does he have a right to complain or should he just admit that he is not really rational, loving and fair minded?

Given that God is also omnipotent, would not a rational, loving, and fair minded god control the hurricanes and prevent them doing damage WITHOUT needing people to beg him to do it? If the rational, loving, and fair minded god does not do this, does he have a right to be worshipped or petitioned by those he should be helping?
okay, I'm on board.

Do you know what omniescient means? It means you don't have to ask.
Given that God is also omniscient, why would a rational, loving, and fair minded person ever bother petitioning God about anything?
Jesus said love your enemy.
Kmisho: well, QED, then, obviously. I dare you to go there and post that response. Do you think we could hear their brains leaking out over the internet? :D

Given that I am also God, would not a rational, loving, and fair minded person be worshipping me and showering me with their monies right now?
Rational, loving, and fair minded people should be petitioning god to harm other people? And if he/she does NOT do this, then they are to hang their heads in shame and shut up?
"Rational" = "asking an invisible friend to fix the weather"?
I'm fairly sure that there were Christians praying during every natural disaster. Some of them were saved, some of them died ...why, it's exactly as if there was nobody listening.
Confused?
