text: I am a Christian too and i understand where you are coming from.\n\nThe fact is that there can be no true love is there is no free will. How can you claim to love your wife if she cannot decide on her own what to do. She has to ask for permission before she can do anything, that won't be true love.\nThe kind of relationship God has with us as his children is different from the kind we have with our own, remember the bible says if we who are evil know how to give good gift to our children, how much more will God give good things to those who ask him.\n\nIf you had the power God has and his wisdom, i am sure you will have done the same. By the time you have stopped about 1 million people from doing what they want to do, even though you know its the best for them, they would label you a bully and a wicked god. If you think well about it, it is wiser to allow people decide what they want to do. They won't have the luxury of blaming you. Look at the case of Adam for example, he blamed God for giving him eve, that's why God now allows us to choose. I would like to talk to you more because it would not be possible on this forum, if you are interested, send me a message. My ID is tolumur@yahoo.com
