I find that I never truly arrive at a final destination. I constantly refine my spiritual belief system as new information becomes available through worldly experiences, new insights, emotional growth, and a philosophical dialectic.

However, you might still make your peace with Him as time passes and you learn more about yourself and the world around you. Besides, why should God do it your way when He has the advantage of being omniscient? Maybe He knows better.

The name "Lucifer" means "morning star" or "son of the morning". This is not a very dark reference. Does God not know his own Creation? Did He not create Lucifer to perform a special task? How could the Creator not know how Lucifer would behave in Heaven? How could God not know that Judas would betray Jesus and trigger the events that would lead to the crucifiction? How else was Jesus to serve God's purpose? Lucifer and Judas did what God wanted them to. Doesn't God get what God wants?

Scott,
You wrote,[...I do not know for certain the mind of God. Does anyone?...How could God not know that Judas would betray Jesus and trigger the events that would lead to the crucifiction...].
I am unsure as to what you want others to think concerning what you have posted here. If you could post answers to the following, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
A. Which God are you referring to?
B. What are you wanting to show by posting about the events that [...would lead to the crucifiction...]?
C. Do you think that what you posted here could arouse antisemitic feelings?
D. If not, why not?
E. Are you aware that there are prohibitions to me here by Mr Hsiung that prevent me from responding in the manner that I want to you here, from a Jewish perspective, and that Mr Hsiung is allowing members here to post what has been used to persecute the Jews for 2 thousand years that your post has the potential to foster hatred toward the Jews?
Here is a link to a post that involves this. Notice near the end of the member's post that there is the statement,[...made to suffer a horrible death by {them}...].Notice that the post is allowed to stand which could lead others to think that what the post purports is supportive and will be good for this community as a whole. Since the statement in question could arouse antisemitic feelings in some, will that be good for this community as a whole to you?
