Where is the “God”?

Look around you.

Not just your immediate surroundings.

Look further.

Look at the world.

What do you see?

Chaos. Suffering. Pain.

Racism. Sexism.

Bombs. Murder. Rape.

Hunger. Starvation.

Harrasment. War.

Shootings. Death.

Man against man.

Human against human.

How can you say there is a God?

That he is merciful?

Kind?

Worthy of worship?

Where is he?

Why doesn't he intervene?

If he is powerful, why not bring peace?

Until there is proof

Until the suffering

The wars

The discrimination

The death

Has stopped, I will believe in no God.

Even if He is there, I would never worship him.
