I'll believe that when you buy this: I know where *you're* coming from on this. It's gotta be a real load off one's mind give it all to God, to retreat into a warm, comfy belief that God is sitting in the driver's seat, turning the steering wheel and shifting the gears, and that he has a Plan for everyone and everything, which we needn't concern ourselves with overly much beyond nattering about "mysterious ways" and selectively enforcing our interpretation of God's putative will upon those who don't share our beliefs, so that God will smile and let us into heaven. Now, are you *sure* you know where I'm coming from? |
