This was just a matter of speach.
Of course - 
God doesn't need any defending per se,
but 
because we're living in this material world, the image is also important, especially if God can be misunderstood by some of us.
Also, 
didn't you ever "defended" your mother or somebody you LOVE when you felt that their image wasn't correct?
:-)
love

		<description>God gives us what we have, God takes from us what we have...Nothing belongs to us...we are in the world because God decided so and we leave this world upon his decision.
Thank you for sharing such great teachings

		<description>A.V.C.
All those questions you've asked are bitter and I understand why, but
let me tell you sth.:
Do we have to blame God for everything that happens in our lives?
I don't think that He/She is responsible for those terrible things you wrote.
When He/She created this world, there was no polution, the food was healthy - organic -
 etc.- therefore there was no diseases that occured because of that,
our genes weren't modified by it, causing cancers etc.- as it happens now.

Also 
why do you blame God for this terrible behaviour of "sick" MEN?
Don't you think that we should blame these people?
They sin, they do terrible things, unfortunatelly.
Look around. 
Do you see God doing that?
He/She cannot correct things for us - it would be too easy - 
these terrible things have to stay on those people conscious, 
because they do it - not God!

Please do not think that I am attacking you,
I am just trying to defend God.
peace and love:-)

		<description>Dear Ines, 


Like you, I have many questions and many doubts, especially when it comes to blind obedience. 
This story speaks to me about dealing with uncertainty, not necessarily from a religious perspective, but from a life perspective. Moses could not do a simple task that was presented to him in his life, because he could not see behind the foreseeable future. 
I find myself like that in so many times in my life… sometimes the need for certainty makes me stop or cease doing things, or look only for things that make me feel safer, or at least comfortable. But imagine embracing uncertainty completely, and being able to face whatever life throws at you without fearing that it makes sense or not right now… but trusting that it will make sense at some point. 
The Universe speaks to us in many ways… and we all wonder whether we should obey our intuition or seek to forecast its meaning first. Almost every single time I denied my intuition because it did not make any sense to my reason, or it did not have the planned benefits I ended up regretting it and begging for forgiveness, especially from myself. 
As always, Paulo, you manage to create magical messages on the challenge we seem to face these days as humanity: knowing when to think, when to listen, and when to act. 

Respectfully, 
Anlao</description>

		<description>For us I think we need to understand and believe God is there for us. Always caring for us and wanting us to reach our potential.  For those whom have passed and able to communicate with God like a true friend like Moses, I think God would not mind if we had questions because we would have understood some important stuff. God may even find our questions humourous.  I hope.</description>
