I'm not much of a god-botherer but I'm uncomfortable with the pervasive assumption of autonomy when the situation seems much more complicated than that to me. But the very idea that we may not be the supreme captain of our ship seems to make lots of people uncomfortable, regardless of their stance on gods. Of course, many fundy Christians show an unseemly eagerness to salute and grovel toward anything that moves on deck. The mere fact that identity is complex doesn't rule out personal initiative or make one a worthless sinner.
