WOW. If she knew all that and allowed it, that would make God a very selfish and heartless being. What a dilemma. If there is no God, the guy that first dreamed her up must have been the most creative being of the time. Or could it be that God is an evolution from multi God superstition to the one and powerful OZ, I mean God. Maybe Religion and Government should be totally separate in power. We can see, hear and verify everything done by government, but we are all just guessing and speculating about the true existence of God.

your last sentence about "we can see, hear and know everything done by govt" seems a bit optimistic to me...i think i have known God in my own life much more than i have ever known about what the govt was really up to
