Does not match the reality around me. And what I hear does not match what I see, is it what you hear or what you see that is incorrect?
For me it got me to decide to live how I think is best, knowing also I will make mistakes, but not accepting what I think is wrong.
For those of any of the Abrahamic faiths, why would a single God allow many religions knowing only one is correct? If he has the ability to explain, or even make people do things, yet does not, then either he does not requier everyone to be correct, or what people think is correct is not the intent.
The simple fact that some people think they are correct and other people are wrong, proves there is free will, or it proves that God does not want people to think the same.
Those are the issues where some think God wants people in conflict, the nihlist view that leads to things like wars, versus the view that God gives free will so people can exist, hoping they learn not to fight each other.
And which one is correct can be defined by if God wanted people to fight, and not for people to learn and love, then why would anyone be allowed to love and learn?
The fact that some fight and think one way, and others do not, shows that it is free will, since if it was a conflict doctrine then all would be in conflict. And there are many people not in conflict, that do not think in terms of fighting.
Why would God allow people to think and feel as they choose? Because it seperates people into what they are. The simple act of giving free will divides people into the two groups they belong in, by the choices of what they do. I don't think God sends people to hell, but people can live in that condition if they choose, while he offers ways out, and without conditions in my view.
