now the god i appreciate is none of that, and does not get involved with the day to day activities of the humans.

The real god has all ready provided all our needs, without even asking, because he has given every person, intelligance, creative power, opportunity, rescourses, courage, persaverance, food supply, sunshine, rain, fertile land, oceans full of fish, and the ground has every element to produce steel, plastic, glass, cement, ashphalt and so on.
God has given us the reproduction potency, and the 5 senses and the body with steangth and desire, for our pleasure
God has given a great tapastry for all people to exsperiance life to the fullest, and because he has given us total freedom with love, god does not interfer with our lives, and has even resided in our heart, as our personal guidance helper.
Ok that just a litte exsplanation, and its not the proper arena, for discussing things in great lengths, so if there is a specific question then ask.
