GfS, have you ever read The Sparrow, by Mary Doria Russell?

Rather than a science-fiction novel as it appears to be, it is very much a novel of ideas. Specifically religious and philosophical ideas.    REVIEW.

But never mind, GfS. Even if you did read the book, you still wouldn't get it.

My concept of God is not as primitive as you seem to think—or that your concept apparently is.

If the Cosmos and all that it is in it was indeed created by an Intelligence that we call "God," the nature of this entity is so far beyond human understanding that anyone who claims to know "the Mind of God" or what God would or would not do in any situation is merely spouting vapor. Bloody nonsense!

So, GfS, don't you try to tell me what God would or would not do in any given situation.
