Does God Have Opinions?
If so, shouldn’t we care what those are?
If God is real, then God has opinions.
That’s my contention. That’s what I’m putting on the table for consideration and discussion.
I realize that some of you reading this do not believe in God. To you, such a question as the one I posed in the title will sound silly. You’re likely to think or say something along the lines of…
How can an imaginary sky god have opinions? If this imaginary being — call him the “sky god” or “the Flying Spaghetti Monster” or whatever — has “opinions,” it’s only those given to him/her/it by people who made him/her/it up.
That sound about right?
I’ll save a discussion on the evidence for God for a different article. For now, if you’re an atheist or agnostic, and you can’t resist, feel free to comment. I already have a pretty good idea of what you’ll say, but go ahead. Or… you may just want to pass on this article or sit back, sip a latte, and enjoy.
My question is for those who either do believe in or are at least open to the existence of a Supreme Being. It’s to them I ask…
If God is real, does it not stand to reason that such a Being would have opinions?
