"Does God want us to be happy?"

  1. I personally dont believe God wants us to be happy in this earthly life. I could be wrong as I dont know. Nobody knows what God is like and as He keeps silent and secret its impossible to know. Diseases disasters starvation pollution toil loneliness and human cruelty makes it impossible for many people to be happy. In my case Im physically ugly and mentally ill and I cant get a girlfriend. I suffer from intense endless loneliness. Why cant God or why wont God help me get a single woman to be my friend? God is negligent and cruel or He is blind. I dont mean visually blind but mentally blind. And He is morslly blind. My Christian faith has weakened largely because of evil and suffering in the world. Evil and suffering does not prove atheism is true. It implies that God is DEFICIENT in some manner. I believe in a deficient God and I coin the term Deficient Theism. Deism Maltheism and Dystheism are examples of a deficient God. The Gnostic God is good and wise but is deficient in power while the Biblical God is powerful but deficient in goodness and deficient in wisdom(in my opinion.) In my personal opinion the Biblical God is not all good and not all wise. He allowed Adam and Eves sin to be passed on to ALL future unborn humans which is unwise and unfair and He cursed and punished the ENTIRE creation including innocent animals with disease violence toil painful childbirth thorns venomous pests parasites hurricanes tsunamis intense cold intense heat mass starvation birth defects physical ugliness miscarriages aging death putrefaction. This is unfair unjust unwise unreasoning and unforgiving and its CRUEL to the umpteenth degree. Its also irrational and insane. This makes me sad and angry. This is not love and mercifulness and this is not wisdom. Something is amiss with this God.
