No probably not. Brainwashing is hard to recover from. |
Agreed! that "God created the stars, the sky, little flowers," & an ever expansive...
universe full of varieties of other benefits.
(But the other 4 mortal sorts of experiences, mostly are decided by humans themselves. That God allows humans choice,
much less hurtful, harmful, destructive & deadly
choices, does not in any way mean He is responsible, for poor choice.)

Interesting that in each instance you said "probably", leaving room for
Individual choice(s)
The evidence does not support your belief tho,
this evidence: that some small children, born in communist countries, & to atheist parents, yet many countless chose during their childhood to belief in GOD. - Yes, whilst never taught, or heard, or read about God or Jesus, yet
the child 
believed. - How do you account for this?

Let me burst your bubble. Its all complete manure. |
sadly, that 'competition', as power-over-people, is exactly what the adversary aims for, destroying
this... human race.
Tragically that human-aided competition, and resultant destruction, amounts to naught "manure".
None of that,
has anything to do with God's perfect works, and excellent
outcomes for us.
Practice... these, for just as God said enjoying "life, & this abundant..."

ok, in your personal opinion, Bertrand is
the authority, on what?
Agreed to "a mind works better, when Open"
open to possibilities... yes! in your past, and your present, plus your future.
Thank!
you for allowing further responses.
