Free Will vs Divine Won't - How God Favours Evil

And then, of course, this leads to the strange situation that now, we frail human beings, not so wise and only moderately intelligent, similarly equipped with freewill and having never witnessed his glory at all seem to be reaching the same conclusion.

The question is why? Why did they do it, why do you do it?

Since when is "great" decided by "right" btw? Do you have no "right" to be "greater" than your parents? I think that they would probably hope that you would be.

Did my parents create the ability to create me or did they just use it? And maybe "great" wasn't the right word to use. Its more a potter and the clay analogy. Just because were aware and can say we don't like something to our creator doesn't mean we have the right or power to, his power surpasses us.
