What part of the above don't you understand? And why is it so hard to acknowledge not just our choices, but our limitations? I am not saying any of this in a religious context, but in a rational one. God gave us the ability to reason, after all. I choose to wonder, question, and hope for better understanding.
You can reason your life away ~ we make them up as we go ~ they have nothing to do with what's so.
Everything we do, we by choice ~ unless you think we are a machine. :)
