        You continue to ignore the main issue: the fact that we are stupid/ 
unwise/impulsive enough to make "wrong" choices. That's a design  
decision the Mr. Omnipotent made before anything else. He made us  
weak; he made us stupid; he gave us impulses and a limited ability to  
control them.

        If you design a system with limited input and processing capacity,  
you can't then turn around and blame the system when it cannot do  
something beyond that. You made the choice to create a limited system;  
you are responsible for both the successes and the failures of your  
design.

        He may have limited himself, but he limited us much, much more.
