Default What would you ask God if you had just one question?

Suppose that he wouldn't be offended no matter what you asked?

You are God! Ask yourself anything you want.

Smooch.

I'd ask what God thinks of that song by Joan Osbourne.

I'd ask of all the things he/she could have created, why did he/she create this f*cked up world.

I don't know. Look in the mirror and ask away.

Default Asking back

He'd know the question anyway. He's God after all. So what point lies in asking the question in the first place? Maybe like everyone else, he needs a mirror to see himself. But then, what does he ask you?

I believe that there is no god, so I have no question to ask.

As much as my conscious mind is saying to myself that I am part of God as we all are, I still don't 100% believe it, but as I do consider myself a God as I consider all of you Gods I would ask: "What's the most fun thing you've ever done?"

So therefore, I ask you, what's the most fun thing you've ever done?

I believe in God as a kind a collective consciousness, even Universal Consciousness. So we're all God. I don't have anything to ask him, my only doubts are about the future, and not even God can know the future...

If we are all parts of God, God cannot be self aware until we are all fully aware of one another.

It was a joke, but if god is real and omniscient then he/she would surely have known how the world was going to turn out.

It's funny how we give each other presents on God's birthday. It's like, you invite everybody to your birthday, and they start swapping presents between themselves as you watch.

I'd ask him if everyone dances naked to Sounds of the Rainforest while wearing clown makeup while they have no one else in the house.
