When I get there, I'm going to shout! I'm going to be so very happy. I'll relax because I'm there. I'm not going to work anymore. I'm going to sleep and eat chocolate and watch soap operas because I'll have lots of time. Then I'm going to . . . and . . . What? I hope I never get there.

I fail to see why this has gone on so long and why you object so much to what I have said. Both of us have said that we do not understand God, and both of us have speculated on what God might be like. Hopefully, I have not presented my speculations as something I expect you to believe, thereby preaching to you.

Surely, you take as jest my asking you to put ashes on your head and repent, or telling you should go to hell to retrieve a woody. If I have preached, I must appologize.

The thing that bother me concerning your statements about God is simply this: You keep saying that God MUST follow rules, covenants and the like. Correct me if I have misunderstood you. Also correct me if I am wrong in saying that if God has to follow rules, then who, really, is God? If you answer that God made rules, and MUST obey them, my response is simply that God can change any rule He makes.
