Hmm that’s interesting. I’m quite undecided on a lot of these ideas, so could see the arguments both ways.

But I feel like ultimately what humans represent is a sort of middle way in its own right, a kind of hybrid. We are entities capable of accessing both the ‘oneness’ and the individualism/ego.

And in our current state we are the very product of the struggle between God and Satan, the direct result of both forces pushing against each other. That’s quite remarkable I think and doesn’t seem like a flawed or unwanted outcome to me.

I also sometimes like to think of this in terms of turing completeness (it’s really intriguing how all religions, science, even computer science seem to point to the same thing).

Basically humans and this universe as a whole are a turing complete system. There are no restrictions, no safety nets. Anything is possible in both extremes. And we are exploring this system from within, in a constant struggle to maintain balance.

Yes, that is our gift from the creator, free will

I used to think like you before I found God. At the end of the day, it’s just whether you believe you can or cannot discern ethics

If God truly does exist, who are you to say that an action or intent is good or bad?

If you have the say, then you are the God

Our thoughts and feelings changes everyday, but the word of God stays the same
