I think you nailed it pretty well. It is not God but us. Humans are broken creatures. And here lies the problem of free will. Yet without it, we would not be free.
But friend, I am not offended in the least. I appreciate the discussion. It does sound like you are saying you refuse to embrace truth because of the failures of others. If that is true, you need to do some more searching inside yourself.
You said it well. We have a ways to go but we're making progress. You are partially right in interpreting what I said as
" you refuse to embrace truth because of the failures of others."
I don't refuse to embrace truth. Context is important. I just don't believe that spirituality should be dictated and/or controlled. To call or equate God with truth is really exactly where I am. Dictated beliefs, particularly when thick in dogma, does not resonate with me. I feel spiritual and connected so I'm confident that your experience with truth, and mine, are similar but not perfect copies. This should be ok, and I'm sure it is to you. My point, is that the great religions of the world tend to draw lines within belief which when crossed, lead to suffering.
