I don't make up things that paint God into any
corner; DAVEH: Here's the problem as I see it, Judy. You seem to think God can do anything, yet he seems to do things the hard way from our perspective. If he could circumvent law, then why did he put his son through the horror of dying on the cross in our behalf? Could not have God simply snapped his fingers to make all right? Could not God have destroyed Lucifer to prevent him from screwing up the world? Yet God knew all this from before the foundations of the world, and has presented us a plan to save us from Satan. Ponder why God's plan is not simple, but involves a lot of pain and suffering by all mankind. For a God who is all powerful, why need there be any pain and suffering at all? Yes, Screwtape Letters is fantasy, Judy. But IMHO, so are a lot of the things people believe about God. all He has to do is speak to the rock and it will move just as He spoke the worlds into existence. DAVEH: Kinda makes one wonder why he allowed his Beloved Son to be crucified. Wouldn't it have been more expedient to just speak his will be done? Judy Taylor wrote:
