(July 17, 2011 at 2:36 pm)TheCarlisle Wrote: God wants us to believe in him. However, he doesn't want to push his belief down our throats. Instead, God provides the Bible as a testimony that he exists and lets us choose whether to believe it or not.

But if our eternal soul rests on these beliefs, isn't he being derelict by not pushing his belief down our throats? After all, what's the inconvenience of having some know-it-all deity telling you how to live compared to burning in hell forever? God's attitude of letting us choose is wholly inconsistent with what he does with us as a result of these beliefs.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
