What if God is real...?

What if God is real but all he wants is for people to love one another and help one another and ensure that no one goes hungry or dies because of individual's imaginary friends? What if the whole reason we are here is to learn how to live together to achieve one purpose- to survive and co-inhabit peacefully? What if it REALLY makes him mad when people alter books that he he wrote to suite their own needs? What of he loves each and every one of us exactly as we are as long as we are not hurting those around us and take the opportunities we are given to make those around us happy rather then judging each other based on a book that may or may not (but was) altered 1,000 times over by selfish men? What if each and every one of us is capable of knowing what is right and what is wrong based on our individual experiences and we were capable of deciding that for ourselves based on the wrongs done to us by others? Like in kindergarten when a kid pushed us down and we learned that it made us feel sad so we never pushed someone or if we have a phyisical difference and kids made fun if us so we never made fun of someone for how they were born. What if THAT is what God intended and not so much about judging one another based on religion, sexual orientation or lifestyle? What a wacky, peaceful, educated world we would live in!
But forget that, god hates anyone that doesn't follow the bible to a T! Right?

Nope. Not what I was asking. I don't want to to regurgitate bible verses, I want you to THINK.
I love God and not only do I pray but I treat every single persons meet with respect and dignity. I live by the values that were instilled in me at birth. I treat others how I would want to be treated. It just so happens that in this case if I were living based on lies and hatred I would want someone to set me straight. I want to know what YOUR HEARTS tell you and how you feel at night before you fall asleep for basing your believes on hate.

Wow- not a single person read past the first line to see that I very much do believe in God and every single point I made was based on the teachings of Jesus. You all need to get out of church and FIND GOD.

People cannot come together as u say because they hold different beliefs. Also,I do not believe in God and I was a Catholic. I have studied the bible since middle school. Also have you read the old testament "loving god" plzzz
Also the Tanakh is the word of God and the Quaran is the word of God. I dare you to go to Muslims and tell them the Quaran is not the word of God or to Jews. You are such a hypocritical christian.

What if God is NOT real? Think of all the time you wasted when you don't get another chance, another life, or an extension on the life you have. (That is one of the points that Pascal's Wager gets wrong.)

The biggest mistake we make is thinking that what happens on earth is the will of God.

John 7:7
The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it that its works are evil.
-----------------------------------

Lies go back a long way.

Acts Chapter 15:24
Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:

Also due to lies in the Kings James version of the Bible we have African Witch children who are abused.

Exodus 22:18
"Do not allow a sorceress to live.

Exodus 22:18
Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

Evil is lies, it is not monsters, lies create monsters.
---------------------------------------

When we judge or philosophize with the words we mindfully construe pertaining to dualism, we actually tell others where we are.
If we hate it's because we hate our selves, this can be due to being subdued and subverted by the evils of this world - lies, family and societal breakdown, and even buying into subjective and empirical philosophies.

<< Romans 12:2 >>
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.

John 15:19
"If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, because of this the world hates you.

John 17:15 - 18
15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

Question: "How can believers be in the world, but not of the world?"

Answer: When we read of the "world" in the New Testament, we are reading the Greek word cosmos. Cosmos most often refers to the inhabited earth and the people who live on the earth, which functions apart from God. Satan is the ruler of this "cosmos" (John 12:31; 16:11; 1 John 5:19). By the simple definition that the word world refers to a world system ruled by Satan, we can more readily appreciate Christ's claims that believers are no longer of the world—we are no longer ruled by sin, nor are we bound by the principles of the world. In addition, we are being changed into the image of Christ, causing our interest in the things of the world to become less and less as we mature in Christ.
