Contradictory views have to be held so that God can be all powerful and all knowning when it's convenient, and hold his hands up and say, "Your bad" when it's something he doesn't like. Even though he designed the person and all of their actions before they were even born, he's going to turn around and blame the puppet for any "bad stuff" he does.
And that's the wonder of being able to exist with cognitive dissonance.
Or maybe it's Scarlet O'Hara synd: "I can't think about that right now. If I do, I'll go crazy. I'll think about that tomorrow."
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
