(August 29, 2011 at 4:32 pm)searchingforanswers Wrote: In my apologetics class we are reading the book Crazy Love by Francis Chan. ... Now Chan uses the passage in the Bible where says that it is absurd for clay to tell the Potter how to shape it. He compares this to our relationship with God, saying that we have no right to question him and he is free to do as he pleases.

I have that book. A group of us from church have started reading through it and discussing it. Where in the book does he talk about this?
Man is a rational animal who always loses his temper when
called upon to act in accordance with the dictates of reason.
