6/ One language for all

see this is the thing with threads like these. yes whatever abolish religion but here you have a dilemma. You are God, therfore you created the universe and everything.

so science would eventually point to the fact that they were stumpped and had no idea how some of the universe was formed or works. therfore you have left the void for religion to exist.

Surely a better number one would be everyone believes the same religion?

Maybe making humans aware is the problem?

God and religion are not the same thing. Sadly, too many people who believe in religion don't actually act like they claim their God wants them too.

Its hard to imagine really, I can only express this through song, do do do do do #piano#

If I were God
I think I could understand
How it feels to love Mary
I swear I'd be a better God

If I were a God
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone

I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
'Cause I know that they'd be faithful
Waiting for me to come home, to come home

Yeeeah.

Religion is God's worst enemy and in some thought processes is considered the Devil.

Not really, by providing proof that you exist, you can eliminate the need for most of the fairytale ****e that religion has conjured up so far. You also the eliminate the many negative and exploitative aspects that many religions bring.

I would strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."

I'd make people have luminescent skin that could glow all the different colours of the visible spectrum. This would serve several important functions.

1. It would make raves fucking awseome!

2. Whenever anyone lied it would flash blue on and off like a police siren. This would solve many many societal problems. Imagine election races for example. Dishonesty, to oneself and to others, is a cause or contributor to a great deal of human suffering I feel.

3. Whenever two people fancied each other their skin would light up in matching patterns of light. This would cut out on a huge amount of messing about in a couple of ways. 1. In a club or bar or at a party or just sitting on a bus there would be none of this "oh I think they like them but don't know if they like me and I don't want to get shot down" crap that some people seem to go through (you've all seen the threads that come up on here from time to time). 2. Your friend would introduce you to his gf for the first time and you and her would light up. A bit awkward at first maybe but any awkwardness would pass quickly. It would all be out in the open, you see. You'd turn to your friend and go "well, as you can see dude, I think your a very lucky man", and he'd say thanks and that'd be that. There'd be none of this insecurity you get with people nowadays.

4. I guess it could be used as a kick ass defense mechanism. So if you were in danger you could strobe really brightly to dazzle and temporarily blind your attacker.

So yeah.... ehhh, glow skin.

I would disinvent cats.

Hmmm. Major flaw there.

"Would you love me even if I got fat?"

"Of course"

to put it in gaming terms, reverse friendly fire.
or a biblical twist, What you do unto others is done unto you.

Dubchild · 06-01-2012 1:17pm

Get rid of cats off this earth?? Then you may as well say dogs too coz some of them can be nasty animals. I love cats nice gentle loving ones and dogs too and all animals, Harmless creatures, leave them here they can bring us so much joy and comfort.
If i we're GOD, jesus it's simple i'd cut out all badness from every human being and their would only be total kindness and consideration to everyone and everything on this earth. What a lovely happy peacefull world it would be.

Chuck Stone · 06-01-2012 1:22pm

Very tough question. Every time I come up with a 'cure' I get the feeling it will have unpredictable consequences that might be worse than the disease.

Damn you Later10.

It sounds incredibly boring though.

Think of all the great music, literature and other art born of hardship and suffering.

Dubchild · 06-01-2012 1:41pm

Boring it might be a bit but very nice i think. We can speak of hardship and suffering and the past and write songs but no meaness done to eacher other or animals. Can you imagine what a contented life we would all have. No bitching, no back stabbing, no violence, no hate, no one judging anyone or anything wrongly. You could know for sure you could trust everyones intentions. I would be a very happy fish is a pond of liquid gold

Burky126 · 06-01-2012 1:43pm

Envy.

There's nothing more ugly than that.The root of all mankind's problems.

Dubchild · 06-01-2012 1:48pm

TRUE ... Jealousy and envy a horrible disease if you have it.

Adultery is a crime?

old hippy · 06-01-2012 1:52pm

If I was a vengeful, old testament style deity; I'd smite all the believers and then smite myself for good measure.

Dubchild · 06-01-2012 1:57pm

Adultery..

don't go there, i wouldn't it has jealousy in it, envy, greed, hate, Love also but will probably end up in alot of grief :pac:

old hippy · 06-01-2012 2:03pm

If I was a non-existent deity, I'd make adultery compulsory

Dubchild · 06-01-2012 2:09pm

As long as it could be ALL love and peace and no war. Still wouldn't work tho coz there would be kids popping out of every bush and none of them would know who where or what they belonged to.

eversmann · 06-01-2012 2:10pm

I'd impregnate a virgin with myself and sit back and watch the ensuing 2000+ years of religiously driven turmoil and laugh my beardy bollix off

Nothingbetter2d · 06-01-2012 2:11pm

if i was God.. i'd slaughter the lot of ye and feed ye to the pigs...for they shall inherit the earth.

Dubchild · 06-01-2012 2:13pm

Oh jesus mary and joseph

i think ur on the wrong track get back in line and behave.

If i were God there would be no bitches, everyone would have someone to love and look after and they would love and look after you and if you wanted a change and agreeable by both you would leave as friends and find another to treat you very well and on and on like that if necessary.

keithclancy · 06-01-2012 2:57pm

I'd replace 'Hello' with people blasting each other with piss and then make a video of everyone doing it.

Put everything back to normal, erase everyones memories.

Then send the video to half the population, sit back and watch the fireworks.
