[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's called divine intervention. I've thought it weird too when people keep thinking God is directing the world in such a direct way and we are only spectators. Most people think God is within us but not directing our daily lives. Kind of like Jiminy Cricket on things that are part of God's plan, not football games, but we have free will. I find it weird when people see destruction and say that must have been god's will or they see they were able to get a sale and say that god somehow intervened in their lives and them going on Tuesday instead of Wednesday was some sort of divine intervention rather than luck.[/quote] I've asked this question to many faithful people btw PP and what they've told me is that a lot of people really want to feel connected to god in a direct way I guess after putting a lot of effort into religion so they align their actions as being more aligned with his. It's a fallacy in at least in my view because per the teaching I've learned we are supposed to grow closer to god, not the other way around, where god somehow keeps manifesting in our lives to mirror our own behavior. We keep changing to be more godlike. He doesn't need to keep performing miracles in he world for football games.[/quote]
