"Why Worry? God's in Control."

[sSsflamesSs]

So I'm driving on the 10, when I see the car in front of me has a bumper sticker that says, "Why Worry? God's in Control."

Am I the only one that got pissed off at that message? I seriously felt like driving the damn car off the road, and then watching the bumbling idiot inside blame the accident on God. These type of people make me sick. You guys know that I believe in a higher power, but COME ON! These are the type of people that put all their trust of the future in the "hands" of something that they cannot fully comprehend. God gives us the tools, and we have to work with them. (This is different than Anon's Lemon thread. I'm not saying that you should take the xxxx that life throws at you, but rather choose to clear through it, and try to come up on top, if that makes sense). While I believe in God, I also believe in free will.

The same type of people that have those types of stickers on their cars are the same people that one day, when nothing goes right for them, blame it on God and declare themselves athiests. To me, these people are cowards. How can you believe in something like that and not take responsibility for your actions?

So, what do you guys think of my ranting? Do you agree with the sticker or not? Why or why not?

I think its a way for people (those of whom you speak of) to have an escape gote (wrong spelling??) So when something bad happens they can say well it wasn't my fault I left the gas on and went out for 3 days it was GOD, it was ment to be bla bla bla. I think its a bunch of bull. Your actions determine your future and some things just happen and we dont know why it just does. You all know about what happened to my brother (sorry i have to bring it up again) but my sister's inlaws once said to my sister, and I ofcoarse had to be there, "Well it was ment to be like this, it was in GOD's hands bla bla bla." My sister flipped out and I, for once, was patient and didnt say a word. When my sister was done telling them off, I asked them "what if it was you? Would you still say that? How can a non-existant being be the teller and holder of all our lives? Why do we have brains? and hearts? So that they can be controled by something we cannot even prove to be real? Its pitiful, I said, that you people are going to sit there and tell me it wasnt my brothers friends fault who was drunk and driving fast it was "ment to be, GOD wants it that way" And i just walked out, my sister followed me. Its just Humans that choose not to use a small percentage of their brains and choose to keep their ignorence and they dont know its ignorence!

Like I said before, it's only "meant to be" to a certain extent - we receive the tools, and we have to make the best of them. In any event, we can't blame anyone but ourselves.

And for future reference Aries, it's "scapegoat" and not "escape gote".

Am I to assume that the rest of you couldn't care less about this topic?

Thanx, I knew the meaning just not the spelling!

"Don't worry, I'm in control" wouldn't make me feel any better.

God is like General Motors he makes the car and sells it to you, but you're behind the wheel.

God gives you the wind , you have to point the sails the right direction.
