Does this sound too much like organized religion?

Just because he can see the end result of eons of evolution doesn't mean I can fathom it. I have freedom to choose my path, therefore accountability is mine. No I'm not a diest, reading is fundamental

I see you're a Christian, just as I did when you first replied.

Does not Christian theology stress that God has a plan for everyone as an extension of his will? And being that he can see into the future, he KNOWS what you will do. Based on this, you cannot change what you are destined to do. If you did, this would render God fallible. In addition, it is a common Christian practice to confide in God for him to choose the right path in life for a specific individual. Christianity also believes in an intervening God, in which you are ultimately subject to God's will and his all encompassing plan.

When seen from this perspective, you are nothing more than a pawn and are being led by the hand by a celestial puppetmaster. Relatively you may think you have control and free will to make choices, but you cannot have an infallible pre-determined plan and have the ability to change it.

Something has to give.

Either:

1. You don't have free will (There is an infallible plan)
2. The plan is fallible, rendering God fallible. (You have free will, there is a God.)
3. There is no plan (There is no God.)

Of course I'm making a positive assertion, which I don't identify with, but like many others on this site, I reject the notion that something is true based on a complete lack of evidence.

I hope I didn't jabber on and made some sense.

Please feel free to correct me if I have any faulty reasoning.

Thanks.
