God didn't do it, Satan didn't do it, we did it?
All the suffering in the world is not the work of Satan or the blind eye of God. It is our materialistic ways that cause such an imbalance of wealth and poverty, it is why earthquake victims live in buildings that cannot withstand earthquakes, it is why flood victims don't get immediate help. When will we stop moaning about Satan's evil plan or God's blind eye and take responsibility for world affairs? Instead of asking "Why doesn't God help..." ask "What are we doing to help?" What do you think? _()_
Are we doing everything we possibly can, or can we do more?
No, Nick, look at the big picture. Either we did something at some point to cause the suffering, or we weren't willing to jump in with everything we have to help.

There is a difference between materialistic and human nature.
Religious people confuse the two and hate them both.
EDIT:
To answer your question, everything, if God(s) is(are) the omnipresence being who created all and is everything, is its fault xor we created all idea of God(s) and it is our fault.
If you believe in that notion of God, you believe that God is in everything and the cause of everything. So God is a murderer.
If not, we are the murders.
Yes you can argue it's not that black and white, but it's getting somewhere.

this could be a sort of reasons that faith isn't clever. considering the fact which you have an fairly valid factor right here. you may stay via Gods word, yet please in no way do something that could harm you. development a relationship with somebody (human or ...in any different case) who might tempt you to do issues you advance into responsive to as incorrect should not be effective to you, nor will it is effective to devil. you won't be able to alter devil for the greater effectual, so there could be incredibly no advantages from this. No, you at the instant are not hating God for coming up devil. If I drew a image and you probably did not like it, might that advise you do unlike me?

What you are saying is true, although at the level of our own understanding, we are aware of two force fighting with each other, assumingly in heaven, I think such forces are in our world now, there are prophecies that heaven will be own earth sometimes, perhaps sooner, to do something positive when we don't have the tools, (Money), and achieved for others what they can't achieved for their own, the only thing left to do, is act, and think positively at all time. Remember that the ruler of this material World is Satan, and evil forces are right around us all the time, we need to fight those forces, with positive acts, thoughts, words and thinking's, if we don't have the means necessary to materialistically fix it, from one day to the next.

I offer my testimony as help.
This is my summation. Knowledge from experience
Here's evidence that God exist! on Sept 15 2005 we witnessed a cloud in the sky supernaturally transform into an ancient relic Cross.
Here’s evidence from the bible:
The cloud can be traced to God's glorious and physical appearance.
And there was the glory of the Lord appearing in the cloud Exodus 16:10
The Cross which is the power of God (1Cor 1:18).
May be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed(1Pt.1:7).
Ok how genuine is a cloud you see them everyday right, until one evening one turns into a cross, Now you got something to work with.
What is your responsibility at this point to share your testimony right.
The experience was an awaken of the heart and nothing short of pure raw fire and brimstone! A snap shot of heaven!
It is in the verse “at that time they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory“.(Luke 21:27). and what better symbol than the cross describes the power of God.
No longer is faith abstract but a substantial reality.
Jesus has revealed himself as promised.

Far too true...
Global warming can be helped by not using using too much pollution e.g. cars, buses etc...
Suffering can be helped by giving money so that they can at least live! e.g. water, food, shelter.... etc...
War can be stopped easily if they have the guts too.... but the oil is making their eyes go blinding into it...
But natural disasters, we are just left to think why they happen (in the religious view)
But I doubt this world would ever be 'good' like just full of it. There are always going to be good or bad.
There is always going to be me saying left and you saying right.

I absolutely agree. Too many persons try to blame 'god' the 'devil' or others for the their suffering as opposed to their lack of utilizing their brains and their extremities.
Do we all not have a brain and eyes and extremities, and the knowledge to know that if it is raining and the water is rising that we should create dams and utilize the water for future droughts, electricity or another water supply? Do we not have common sense that if we live in a place that is prone to floods, earthquakes and other catastrophes to MOVE, or utilize intelligence to prevent harm and danger to ourselves?
Is it anyone's fault if we choose to do stupid things? Is it anyone's fault we do not utilize our brains and have intellect to problem solve?
If we allow drugs in our communities... is it the devils or gods fault we allow it? If we allow rape, murder and child molestation... is it anyone elses fault but our own?
The high price of food... what is the reason for not raising your own fruits and veggies? And if you live in a apt complex... why not have a community garden? I have attempted myself to try to get others to do the aforementioned for the past 7 years... have found not ONE person with the courage to do so... all are lazy or too 'spoiled'...
these same persons are not crying.... but they have THEMSELVES to blame.

i think, that governments of the countries should do, what,s possible, with our help.
*where all the tax money goes?*
(so called Federal Bank Reserve, which belongs to ENGLAND, aka, Great Britain, since the ´´establishment´´ of the USA. It was NEVER paid back to them and interest is higher right now, then 200 years of net income of a middle class working people.)

u are absolutely right, people need to shoulder some damn responsibility. nothing but ourselves is doing anything in this world and it is our duty as god like creatures to love one another as god loves us
screw the concept of satan its all just a scapegoat. People need to be responsible for their own character flaws

You're right--a lot of bad things that happen are the results of our own bad choices. But that's not the whole story. Satan is the one who tempts us to make those bad choices, and God is the one who helps us resist those temptations and teaches us a better way to live.

Most is our own fault. But some is out of our control, as in the weather and such.
