Discussion»Questions»Religion and Spirituality» God created all right? He created the rich and the poor. Does He love rich folks more than poor? Why did He give the rich so much more?
He didn't give them any more than anyone else, they either earned it or they got it by stealing, crooked deals, cheating, like most politicians. If you ever met a honest Politician he would be poor. Obama is leaving with 24 Million, get it?
God didn't create the rich and the poor. Actually God created only Adam and Eve. Everyone else from that point on was procreated. There have always been rich and poor people down through the ages. Some are born into big money while others have the wherewithal to make their own fortune. Many people are born into poverty while others are poor because of pride, bad choices, laziness, or all three. Us humans tend to unjustly blame God for our own mistakes and failures.
You started your question with a grand presumption. Which God? What proof is there for this presumption?
People are cast into their circumstance by any number of factors: including inheritance, inititiative, personal decisions and chance. No one has ever presented proof that any deity takes a role in human affairs, only delusion seems to make such claims. There are many reasons people have wealth, unless you count corrupt televangelists and the Vatican, god has nothing to do with it
