So You've Tried God and It Didn't Work 3

We believe we should not be forced like robots to obey God.

We believe we should have the right to freewill, to choose between right and wrong. That if we have chosen wrongly, it is the fault of God for giving us freewill in the first place, and dooming us to fail.

We believe we should be able to freely at our leisure, choose whatever we might desire. That God which allows us to suffer the natural consequence of doing so is no God at all.

We believe God who does not remove the injustice of consequence from our decisions (as we see fit) is not worthy of worship.

We believe that the infinite should meet the expectations of the finite. That the will of God should conform to the logic and timing of man. If we fail to recognize it, it does not exist.

We believe God should be made in our image. If God does not look like us, sound like us, feel like us, that there is then no God.

We believe fairness is measured by our standards alone. We alone parcel out grace in measured doses.

We believe all of this because in reality, we believe that we are in fact God. That God stands before us in judgment.

We will live until we die, apart from God, as we have chosen. Then we will complain once more when he allows us to continue doing so.

God does not love us... not like we deserve.

Is that about right?
