I would rather be the one stalking death, than the other way around, which it seems you prefer.

Here's how I see it.Rintendo wrote:
As for a benevolent God...if your perception of God is anthropomorphic and limited then it would indeed seem as if God is an a--hole. If your perception of God is that It is a limitless, endless, entity experiencing life as both single and individual consciousness through all aspects of creativity both good and bad, then you can see why there is suffering in this world because you will realize that you created it and you let it happen.
If your enlightenment is that you come to the realization that you are both you and your neighbor and the a--holes making war upon the other, that you are all a part of the experience then it equips you with the tools and will to change it by manifesting this truth, or by acceptance that this realm has time and that time will be short compared to the timeless beauty and creative realms of G-D.
