"God acts with us in all our freedom and liberty He gave us" wait didn't the devil tell Adam and Eve to eat the apple to become like god?
"Everything acts according to cause and effect. This means that everything is programmed, and that there is no free will." So we're slaves? ok. Also, do you watch both ways when crossing the road? I don't thinks so.
Well, didn't Adam and Eve become like God, knowing both good and evil? Until they sinned, Adam and Eve knew only good. After they sinned, they knew evil as well. What's wrong with that? Nothing... if you like death. Since then, they and all their descendants get to die.
Not slaves. There is a tiny part in each of us that believes in God in free will fashion. According to our faith and His will, God directs our lives according to our faith in Him.
The funny thing is, if you didn't have any faith in God at all, you wouldn't be alive. Why do you keep on trying to kill yourself... by eliminating the last little bit of faith in God that you have?
