Hello! I recently listened to Seth Godin's thoughts on daily blogging (again!) and thought I'd like to give it a try (again). I have another blog (attycortes.wordpress.com) where I post some of my devotionals, poems, and occasional legal pieces (I'm a lawyer by profession), but I want a simpler platform where I can post some spiritual reflections on a daily basis based on books I'm currently reading and the like. So I'm giving this a try and see what happens.
I notice that people’s objections to God’s existence or to his character and ways often involve judging him according to human standards. Thus, we say he is guilty of cosmic child abuse, of being a control freak, etc. We arrogantly presume that we possess the omniscience and wisdom to know how God should govern the moral universe, forgetting how finite and ignorant we actually are. Moreover, our judgement of God can actually be a form of disclaiming responsibility and shifting blame for the results of our messing up the world and ourselves.
