In my case at least, god's exercise in "seek and pursuit" has been an abject failure. You worship a god that fails. Failure is not a good quality in a god.

Guilt free relationship, huh? Does that mean that someone who adores members of the same sex can explore such desires, openly, honestly, and without guilt?

Does that mean that someone who believes a god exists, but doesn't choose to worship him, can go through life knowing their lack of worship will not lead to punishment.

And of course, the real tricky question. If our hearts were designed this way, why do so few people have an open, honest relationship with God in the first place? Like myself. Like most claimant Christians.

And if its open and honest, why can't it be consistent, and easy to read. Why is God such a mystery? Open and honest to me has to come with a sense of understanding, and a clearly developed train of thought. Yet most people don't understand the phenomena of god.
