Question - have you really sought Him out - or do you expect Him to break down the door? |
That is a trick question. How about all the people who seek him out and are not acknowlegded? Are they just not doing it right?
Also, my opinion stems from observation. I got free will. Wheee! then I get blown away by some creep who has ALSO been blessed with free will. Or even better, take those poor bastards in Africa. They have free will too I suppose. To do what, decide which bug to swat off their dying kids?
I prefer believeing that God does not exist, thank you. The only other option would be to believe he is a malavolent spirit who plays humanity for enjoyment, like some twisted real-life version of "Doom".
