Yeah. I feel like this meme puts more into religion than the usual "if god is real, why he can't dm me?" sort of thing. Yeah, if you speak to more educated religious person, they will say that God manifest itself in every action and object that there is to exist, he doesn't need to appear as he is, he appears as his creations, and it is everything that there is around. But there's is something really messed up with religion and that is evil. Your average Joe religious person will be dotrinated by an priest that X thing is evil because God said so. He is just stupid, and not his religion or needing to believe in a bigger and greater being out there. Someone just took advantage of his spiritual side and can control him.
If Christian God exists and is as commonly accepted (i.e. onmi-everything), even if you believe that God does not need to show up and say hello, I still think that this meme has a point. One cannot be, by the meaning of our language, all powerful and super nice while not making the world a utopia. If life is a test and God can see the future, why have the test at all?
I don't want to question anyone's beliefs, I'm just not able to comprehend the mindset because religion has never been part of my life.
