What would you say to God if he walked in... - Cure Parkinson's
What would you say to God if he walked into the room?
I would say "Hello", introduce myself, ask him to "have a seat" and offer him something to drink because He is going to "be a while"!
That's for sure!
Aw right Big Man , how we gonie sort this out
I would say 'thank you, I have had a wonderful life - can you now please equip me with the tools to face what is ahead'.
Yes, I believe I would say something similar. I would also want him to give me the strength to get through the years ahead.
So totally true. PD is bad for some, but we can prevail....given the tools and strength to do so.
If this community had a 'like' button (like on Facebook), I'd 'like' your answer! 
I would say " OK so here's the deal - for your sake CURE ME!"
I would say
"Just when I thought I was able to play any card you've dealt me, you dealt me a hand that I can't win, unless you give all us another chance, and tell us the answer"
I would fall down at His feet and worship Him and thank Him for everything that is good in my life. God is a good God! This disease is not from God.
Would you put a disease on your child to teach them something or to punish them. I don't know exactly why I have this disease,but I'm standing on his word and trusting him to bring me through this valley of the shadow of death.
After falling on my knees, I would say " Hello Father,I've always wanted to see your face. How do you pronounce your true name?May I have a hug?"
Amen, Mary Alice.
I would also thank Him for my many blessings and how PD has changed my life, in many ways, same good and some not so good.
Most of all for helping me feel better today than I have in the past 6 years (if I take my meds correctly), I have enjoyed getting to know Him better and being given a new perspective on life.
I automatically wanted to say something spiritual ,expressing,gratitude for all that has been good in my difficult life, but then it occurred to me..All I want is to have the wonderful sense of humor some of you have! .
it is an amazing thing ...a good sense of humor that is!!
I would probably faint from shock. Seriously though I would thank him for all the gifts he has given me and for giving me the strength I never knew I had to live with and fight PD,
I am not dying from hunger, or seeing my loved ones doing this. I have a roof over my head and a lovely family. Yes, I have a lot to be grateful for and I don't thank him nearly enough.
I would say look the restraining order says 25ft, we are good. ....hehe. honestly i dont know what i would say. I let go of belief many years ago after seeing and holding dying or lifeless friends in the military and not sure why anyone would let that hapoen ever... But time goes on....
You keep coming back to this god thing. There is no god, get over it. We are not bad people, we do not have it coming. Let's stay on track and talk about things we can do something about. If you want to talk about Flying Spaghetti Monsters go to god.com with the rest of the simple minded people and post your questions there.
To Coveredbridge----I don't believe any of us had this coming but we stilll got it. Each of us must do our best to get through the days and years ahead. Some of us choose to turn to our spiritual beliefs. You are certainly welcome to post your feelings on this website, ask questions and share information but please don't disrespect others for what they believe. I don't believe there are any simple minded people on this website.
I would throw him out. There isn't any god so the guy is having a laugh.
I have lived with my partner for over 16 years, she is a Buddhist. She stuck with me even when I was diagnosed with PD. A "good" Christian in town told me I had PD coming because I was living with an infidel women out of wedlock. Every since I vowed to take on ignorance and bigotry. Religion has stood in the way of stem cell research, pollutes our government and our kids science classes. I am compelled to put my shoulder to the wheel when ever I hear god invoked.
Covered, You have a right to your beliefs as do those who believe in a higher power. Believers are not all ignorant bigots. Likewise Non believers are not all open minded and accepting of differences.I'm sorry you had a bad experience with a believer but painting everyone with the same brush limits growth. I am a believer but I am also accepting of scientific fact. I do not believe God is vindictive or the giver of our disease but do believe we who have diseases are victims of natural selection. Generalities are rarely true of the greater group and smacks of a bigotry towards believers.. My brother is what is known as a noted Free Thinker (goggling him will get 56,000 references) yet he and I love each other and calmly and intelligently discuss our opposing belief systems. You can disagree with believers views without insulting them.
I'd say "ok God. Let's go knock PD on it's backside". And give him or her a high five
You are the first to question the gender of "God", whether there is "One" or not is another question. Everyone believes something, for me I believe in what makes my burdens easier to bear. That is not a false hope, it is a practical way of living. Thank you for the question...BTW< how big is the room?
I don't believe he/she would but, if it happened, I would say, "You've got a nerve showing up here, now. When you look at all the pain and suffering in the world, how can you claim to be a 'just' or 'compassionate' god? Millions of people have a miserable existence right from birth and you do nothing to help.. Thanks for nothing."
I don't believe in a vindictive God, who monitors us like a jailor, detailing our sins, or demands a faith in the unknowable, or punishes us for lack of effort. Many evils have been perpetrated in the Name. So, it soothes my soul to ask for help internally. If that is talking to God so be it...Btw, I'd ask "Could you possibly explain why?" I believe I would get the same response i get now, nothing! Open Sesame!
Of course I don't know, but I think I would be stunned, and then start asking questions, beginning with "If you are really God, what kind of game are you playing"?
I don't think I would ask anything really, probably just give him or her or it a shake of my head and perhaps murmur, 'My, my. You have some 'splaining' to do."
Noted with regret that Coveredbridge has left the forum.
this concerns me
NOTE: Yesterday [1/30/12] I deleted a comment that I made to Coveredbridge that may have seemed offensive. Although my Question was intended to discuss The Question of Faith it was not my intention to offend anyone. I am sorry that Coveredbridge left The Forum.
I agree. It's our choice. to choose what we do with our life . I'm sorry that Coverbride had such a bad experience . I know that the God I l know is a God of love. not condemnation.
I think that a more interesting question would be to ask people if they have become more spiritual or less spiritual since being diagnosed. As odd as it may sound, i feel more connected to the "Big Guy" then before. Now it may just be residue from my pre-Vatican II Catholic childhood, but it's interesting to note that I have not become bitter about having PD. But i understand if people have since it can wreck havoc on careers, marriages, relationships, etc...
I have just been told I have Parkinsons, and what would I say to God if he walked in to the room. I would ask him to help me to help others with disease for as long as I am able, to give all of my efforts into helping fund the foundations for research. I do not know how I will do this but I will ask him to show me the way... I am blessed to have a new and different challenge to life, but I have life! There are things much worse than Parkinsons that I have survived. I say thank you God for the chance to meet new people who care.
Iwould say Thank You for coming to see your favorite Hacky Sack!
Seriously, I would ask Him how I was doing. "Am I handling this the way You wanted me to?"
I like that refreshing view - a lot!
i would say thanks a bunch mate bet you didnt keep any of this annoying disease for your self im angry because ive worked hard all my life when i come to retire and enjoy this wonderful life you hit me with this don texpect me to be grateful for the pd but for the rest of it yes
