I VERY much agree with you. I love how you put all this into words, I'm not sure how easy it was for you, but it's still brilliant. As I'm sure you know or could figure out, Joe's atheist by his own words, tho I believe him to be more agnostic than anything. The point being, we often discuss theology and are constantly working on putting together what/how we feel on the issue and his problem has always been Freewill. How can God be all knowing and all powerful and we still have free will. In short, I felt the same way you did and it took me quite some time to put it all into coherent thoughts.
So, um, well done!
