Welcome to IWETHEY!

New There lies a problem
if we are not to know God's Will, how are we to do God's Will? Am I using The Force or something? Doing God's Will without knowing God's Will? Therefore without knowing it, I am doing God's Will by posting in favor of God. Or maybe I know just a small part of God's Will and it has somehow driven me a bit crazy? :)

I am free now, to choose my own destiny.
New Re: There lies a problem
You got it!

The best we can hope for is Man's interpretation (no..that's not right, either...not "Man's interpretation", but rather, "a man's interpretation") of God's Will.

Meditate on that, Grasshopper, and you may come to understand the utter futility of Organized Religion, and instead promote yourself to Faith instead.

New God would have no problem communicating his will.
The problems come when other humans take it upon themselves to tell other humans what "God's Will" is.

What is God's Will for you does not necessarily equate to God's Will for me.

Think of building a house.

You won't get too far if the plumber converts everyone on the job site to Orthodox Plumbing.

You still need carpenters and masons and so forth.

The path you find that is right for you is right for you. But it isn't necessarily the path that EVERYONE should follow.
New Brandi...how ironic!

You could, of course, have been trying to be ironic...
