It's the human way to mock things. And surely God is above feeling peeved about such trivial things. I mean, he is portrayed as this terribly powerful being who is beyond comprehension, but then he is also portrayed as fickle, small minded, prone to bouts of anger and to be honest, can be quite sadistic. Ok, very sadistic.
And what are you saying, that might makes right? So God can create. But I am yet to see proof that he givith anything. I think most people would agree that less people would doubt God existed, and stop mocking him, if he did something tangible. Something positive. Something to show beyond the shadow of a doubt he is out there. Then he would deserve faith.
Because, lets be honest, I see few things in this world that one can say "yep, that's God at work." I see beauty yes, but I see no reason that it is attributed to God. I see people suffering, people working hard, people being good and bad. I see luck, and coincidence and I see nature and things happening naturally. I see science. But I don't see anything concrete that can be attributed to God. And I see plenty that makes me doubt that God exists, or if he does makes me wonder if he is truly good. And faith/trust is one the our most important things, and as I have said before, it is something that needs to be earned, not simply expected.
Oh, and perhaps I can see why he wouldn't do anything for a nonbeliever, but how do you address the fact that there are so many unhappy believers out there? That people with faith suffer and so forth? Why doesn't he do anything for them?
