Before we could blame GOD for our misfortunes first we need to assure he exists and if he does how much power he has over us lesser mortals. Or we have no one but ourselves to blame for our failures, deficiencies and adversities.

I think our own personal experience tells. He definitely exists there is no doubt but definition of God varies from person to person. Some say He is somewhere faraway in some ivory tower, or is pure consciousness and some believe he is a figment of imagination.

But yes indeed the mind is a versatile instrument and if we strongly believe in something it becomes real for us. so those that believe in ghosts see ghosts and those that believe in aliens find an alien on their roof tops and those searching for God find God.

What is your attitude towards God ?

(a) Do you praise Him ? ( Basically leave everything to His Divine Will)

(b) Blame Him ? ( Believe he exists but is not doing a good job)

(c) Stike a balance with God

( Love and Fear relationship, believe in Him and also bargain a deal, perhaps an insurance )

(d) Depend on your ownself ( Do not care whether God exists or not)

I have more or less learnt to accept the world for what it is. Perhaps there are many things which I do not quite understand or perceive. To me God is very much real and we can call upon Him for favours at times.

And why do you call upon Him for favors?

What gives person favor with God? (Many people call God for favor, how come some get fulfilled while others don't)

Sometimes we must be patient and wait. At times God gives us based on the credit balance in our account. If we do not get what we want we can make a further request.
As they say careful what we pray for.

actually I am still confused for God aka destiny..

I mean I have never realized that God helped me when I got in trouble I cried too much but God never did help me and solved my problems..

I have never got what i wanted... only lost and lost.. but still I am not negative for god.

I am sorry about that but I know that your tears are not in vain...someone listens all the time. Life can be pretty bad at times and often we ask God why. It is not easy to hang on at times but still I think prayers help. The situation may not improve much but we may not feel the pain anymore. There is our own conscience or voice that within that advises us often and some take that to be the voice of God too.

Along with the hope is also peace of mind.

The value of peace of mind is truly priceless.

Yes God does not exist for many. As long as you have love and compassion you need no God.

Hmmm I have a wild imagination. Compared to other things that are imminent, I don't give God much thought. He/she (hope you get that ref.) is an assumed presence. What I have learned over the years is doing your best, fearing the worst and hoping for something in between. Usually works out. Blaming God is overlooking the obvious. Hiding your inhibitions and/or control over a situation. I believe in active action (yes, I am the chair of the dept of redundancy dept) and passive reception. God is a force that resides in me and in the surroundings I interact with. You cannot prove beyond reasonable doubt the blame is on God. But you can look for signs that might point you to obvious sources such as yourself and others around you.

Long story short, no.

logically god can't exist. and to be a human being u don't need God at all. God is a myth created to sustain the kingdoms, empires and political control.

Well you seem to be practical and independent and basically relying everything on your ownself and efforts.

But just like any habit that gives us pleasure God too can be an addiction and many do not care whether He exists or not but they love to dwell on him.

But what I hate is people pushing religion and thinking they are better than the rest.
