I don’t really believe in God interfering in human events. And if there is a God you have to wonder whose side he’s really on. Then I see something like this:

And I start to second-guess myself.

In July 2021, some people painted a big mural of George Floyd on a brick wall that was the side of a building in Toledo, OH.

Shortly afterward, a storm gathered, there was a big flash of lightning, and the mural of George Floyd completely collapsed.

That building and the surrounding area had never had any trouble with lightning strikes or other such storm damage until that moment.

Coincidence, I'm sure. Right?

Anyways, doubt God is gonna side with Hamas or IDF.

I doubt God supports the slaughter was of innocents. And I highly doubt God would side with the Turkish government.
It's apparent that you're not a Christian. Allah is NOT the God that Christians believe in. For most religions, God is a title, not a name. It's like the words MOM, MOTHER, DAD, FATHER, etc. Those are parental titles not the given names of our parents. When it comes to religions, using the same title doesn't mean we're referring to the same god(s).

Allah does NOT have a son who lived as a human. To even suggest otherwise is offensive to Muslims. Islam is called an Abrahamic religion but it's god is never referred to as the God of Israel.

Yahweh has a SON whose name is JESUS. Jesus lived on earth in human form. Because of Jesus' life, death, and resurrections, he saves people from their sin. To suggest otherwise is offensive to Christians. Christianity is called an Abrahamic religion and it's god is the God of Israel.

Two very different belief systems here. One cannot substitute for the other.

Wasn't there a reporter who was getting a covid shot on tv while extolling the virtues of the covid shot and had hit the floor in a faint while receiving the shot?

Some argue that Allah is not.

“Allah is the greatest of deceivers !”
Quran 3:54, 8:30 Allah is the best of deceivers.
Revelation 12:9 Satan is the deceiver of the whole world.

Civilizations that improve the human condition really honks off the “faithful” who have spent the last 1400 years killing millions to prove they're right and everyone else is wrong.
