Divine Regrets?

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

Peace might rob us of our self-importance in the world. Can’t have that.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

Who can dispute your wisdom?
Only those who cannot reconcile your power and goodness with suffering.
You respond in Christ.
Who can dispute your power?
Only those who cannot reconcile your wisdom and goodness with suffering.
You respond in Christ.
Who can dispute your goodness?
Only those who cannot reconcile your power and wisdom with suffering.
You respond in Christ.
Who can dispute your glory?
Only those who do not see.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“Cousin John, I have doubts about the ethics of collecting protection money from the rich so you won’t condemn them to hell.”

[They did have differences over some things, but this wasn’t one of them.]

D. Blog: Divine Regrets?

Sometimes I wonder whether God has any regrets -- about us humans, I mean.
Considering the gifts and talents we have, our creativity, resources and adaptability, we make some ungodly choices and terrible mistakes. This cannot possibly be according to some divine plan. So, my sense is that we muddle along, that the divine experiment with life in time and space continues moving along in a sacred hope that we realize our potential as divine offspring.
