Ah, but if you believe in God, He(She, It, Whatever) must be to blame as the pilot in command and ultimately responsible. It's easier than looking for real answers to what we don't understand, or what we choose to ignore, or looking in the mirror. But don't we make God in our own image?

I dont believe in god. But I can still blame him/her/it, right? Just in case he/she/it is real, right?

As for who made who in their image, it used to be "God made use in his image", these days it definitely is "We made God in our image".

For sake of balance and symbolism I feel this post should at least mention the Devil.

Drama on another Malaysian airways flight which had to circle two hours to burn fuel before RTBing in Kuala Lumpur. MH179 is the flights number. Apparently it's landed safely and parked up now, no idea why it returned so soon after take-off.

Here it is twice in the right thread, but really could be both, which is too hard for even my faith to accept.

I don't think God is into shooting down passenger planes to prove His point of don't mess with Israel, but there is a point to be made that the God of Israel was not to pleased with Hamas terror cell groups getting there training in Malaysia.

Hamas terrorists received training in Malaysia and Gaza to infiltrate Israel by air to kidnap and murder Israelis

Quote:
In 2010, the prisoner was enlisted into a special force sent to Malaysia for parachute training, in preparation for a cross-border kidnapping attack on Israel. He and ten other terrorists from across Gaza spent a week receiving training in Malaysia.
After returning to Gaza, the cell was given additional weapons training. They were warned to maintain secrecy, and not to reveal details of their Malaysian training to anyone

https://www.idfblog.com/blog/2014/07...ning-malaysia/

Yes the article was written the end of July last year, but is just now chronicling the actual truth that Hamas is training in Malaysia.

What if MH-370 was an act of God and a sign to leave Israel alone?

I know it sounds strange, but God has a way of getting his message across to His followers and His enemies.


Just saying.

If it was God then the insurance companies wouldn't have to pay now would they.

Read your policy on your home, "Not covered by an act of God"

One would have to prove God exists in order to use that disclaimer beyond what it's used for now. However I think you were making a joke.

No. Not necessary as in 'is it needed'.
I volunteered as in 'You opened this can'.

When Somebody uses religious arguments in a discussion/debate based around provable facts, then we might as well include aliens or the kraken as possible causes to this mystery.
