Why Get God Right?

Because if you get Him right, you'll get yourself right!

I have a friend who is a biologist and an atheist. She’s an atheist because she’s convinced there is no such thing as “free will.” She believes this because of her science. To her, every choice we think we make is actually just certain chemical reactions to different stimuli. I know—sad, isn’t it? And yet, I know some theologians who would agree with her about “free will.”

And yet, we humans have clear examples of choices that get us in trouble and choices that get us out of trouble. So, maybe it isn’t our chemicals that are messed up but our ability to choose well.
