If you think He exists, yes.

There are no "written" rights to hate God. If you think that we are giving you "rights" or the go-ahead to do so then does it make it okay? I believe that everything has a purpose. Everything. Even though I'm sorry for your misfortune.

Yes, of course you do, but I am not sure that it will do you any good. I'm sorry that you're having a difficult time though. Hang in there!

No one has a right to hate the Heavenly Father. He's not managing your life, and he is not punishing you for anything you have done or not done. Call on Him to give you the strength to correct your family's situation. Once you allow the adversary to turn you against the Heavenly Father, you are assuring your family of deeper troubles. Have faith and keep working to improve your lot. Many families have survived who started out with less than yours - your father was driving a car, that was a blessing. You live in a free country? Count the blessings. You have a computer and time to spend on the internet? A blessing and an advantage. Put these things to work for you and your family, and don't blame the most powerful love in the universe for your tribulations. You aren't Job, and you have everything to gain with the right attitude of humility and faith.

I can't see the point in hating God as long as your father is blessed with life and a chance to rest and recuperate from an accident :)

Free will has given you the "ability" to hate God.... But God doesn't work in evil... God didn't wreck the car or cause the lost job... He didn't prevent it either, but that is the part where "free will" is preserved. Thank him for the spared life, and don't waste time hating.

You can hate whoever you want, but hate is a negative emotion that produces nothing. Why not just be angry? Talk to God about it. Let Him know how you feel. He has big shoulders. He can take it. Job tried it in the Old Testament, and God answered him. To be honest, this is a fallen world, and in a fallen world, there is "war", in which symbolic "bullets" fly. It is inevitable that someone is going to get hit, and that person will not necessarily be someone firing the bullets. The important thing is the reaction to the shot. Do you simply fall, or do you get up and try again? It sounds like, because of a number of hits, that you and your family need some counselling. As a pastor's wife, who has seen a lot of suffering, I can say that there is a danger of falling into a "why me?" pit and never getting out because it just doesn't seem worth it. However, to return to the bullet analogy: I watched a programme on WW2 the other night, where it was told that a pilot of a Spitfire had to bail out. While he was descending, he realised that he had been hit in the leg and was bleeding to death. While he was in free fall, he took a cable from somewhere on his uniform and tourniqueted his leg. Then he opened his parachute. He didn't let the hopelessness of the situation determine his future. He did something to change it. Can you do this? That is all I ask. I won't give you platitudes of "think of all the people worse off than you" or "think of all the good things". That does nothing when you are in the middle of troubles. I understand that only too well myself, believe me. Life is sometimes a hard, hard grind and each person's pain is unique. Please get some counselling, both as individuals and as a family. I know you are angry, but your pastor is a qualified person and can talk to you about it, and refer you on to more help if needed. It may be that your dad needs some business mentoring, so that he learns to make good financial decisions and how to bounce back financially even in times of difficulty. I wish I were closer. I would help myself. But I promise that I will pray to God, that you get through this. Jesus said "In this world, you will have troubles, but, be of good cheer:I have overcome the world." Blessings

You have any absolute right to hate anybody or anything you choose. I hope your Dad recovers from his injuries. Life really can be a bitch sometimes.

Where I come from there is a saying “Gipsies always dance in the rain.” For years I pondered on this one, not until I became a born-again Christian did I get it… Because, they know that after the rain, sunshine comes…. I think you had enough rain in your life, guess what’s coming… Yours in Christ…

Hate....I wouldn't want anything more to do with him. I believe we make our own happiness in life and sometimes tragedies befall us. If I believed in God, then I would have had a nervous breakdown after surviving 911. He would have not allowed that curse on mankind to happen. He would have prevented it. And, for the record, I don't hate anything I don't believe exists. Not the God you find in the Bible anyway. Sorry about dad and your family. My good thoughts will be with you. I hope you find your path to happiness and not dwell too long on superstitions.

Why not hate Satan?

Don't you and your family have any responsibility in what happens in your lives? If there is a God, and if you are good people that this God would approve of, this does not, in ANY religion, guarantee you a smooth, happy, safe and wealthy life.

I've always been told that when your living right.And doing what needs to be done for the lord,that if satan is not slapping you around then your not were you need to be with the lord. The lord lets us live our lives its just our choice to choose the path of life that we want to follow.

Lots of times when hard times have come my way...I try to figure out just why this is happening. Have I been obedient in all my ways? Have I done all the LORD has asked of me? Tithe....kept the commandments as best I could? Because from my understanding...alot of times because of disobedience we open the door for the enemy to be able to inflict some kind of pain or problem into our life. Ask the LORD for forgiveness and to reveal to you if there is something you are doing that has allowed this pain to come upon your family. Trust HIM and don't focus on your problem...but keep worshipping HE who only wants the best for HIS children. GOD bless you and your family and I will pray that the windows of heaven be opened and blessings showered upon you....take care and GOD bless you.
