>>1981I agree with you anon because I see it like this:
If God wants to do something in this universe, He will do it through the laws by which He made the universe function. He will make the cycles of nature do His bidding or He will bend them slightly. If He wants a cataclysmic flood, he has to make it rain a lot or raise the Earth's temperature to melt polar ice caps. If He wants rivers to temporarily become poisonous and cause a famine to punish humans, He can set the whole chain in motion with a precisely timed volcanic eruption. The ash blots out the sun, then it falls into the river and poisons it, crops die and people starve.
Even we must obey the laws we set upon our creations in order to affect them. When a computer programmer wants to make a change to a system, he needs to work within the confines of the system in order to change it. If the behavior of a program is defined by a configuration file, then you will alter the way it behaves by editing the configuration file.
All religions and mystical systems state that God is the foundation of all existence - the One who was, is and will be forever. We don't notice gravity in our daily lives, even though it is one of the most fundamental forces in the universe. When you look at it this way, is it really so surprising that most people struggle with the idea of divinity?
