A couplet from my song, "Makes Sense":
"Anyone who says he’s got it all figured out
Well, that’s the kind of person to avoid, no doubt"
It takes enormous ego for a person to believe they have all the answers. Even more so to claim they can read the mind of God!
And Kent not only knows God's thoughts regarding how he should conduct his life, but how you should conduct yours as well. So sorry you've had to deal with this pompous blowhard.
When I hear a person admit that they don't understand God, I get the feeling they are on the right path. Some things are beyond human comprehension. And, being mortal, I'm perfectly fine with that.
I am grateful for your writing, Dan. I am equally grateful for the writing of my friend, John Pavlovitz.
