So, it was God's choice to have someone raped? The point is that our free will is our faulty part. If we didn't have it, we'd be perfect and only do good. He gave us that faulty part.
Ah maybe that's the difference. In my understanding the free will isn't a faulty part. God didn't create us to be choiceless and only do good and be perfect. If we didn't have free will that would be tha faulty part. Our purpose is to grow and learn and make choices. Our purpose on this earth is to choose to follow God and to improve ourselves. It's not a bad thing that people have the ability to choose bad things. It's the whole point of our existence. God created us to choose between good and evil.
In my religion, we believe before we we're born on the earth all of our spirits lived with God. We learned and progressed as far as we could as spirits. We, as children of God, wanted to be more like our Father. But we couldn't. we had prgressed as far as we could. So in order for us to progress God told us of a plan whereby we could become more like Him. The plan was that we would come to earth, gain physical bodies and through our choices determine if we are able to handle a physical body. A physical body is a vital step to progressing and becoming more like our Father. God knew that no one would be able to handle a body and make the perfect choices neccesary to return to Him. So He provided a Saviour for us. With a Saviour we would be still be able to return to Him if we followed the Saviour to the best we can. In this council where God showed us His plan, one Spirit presented us with another plan. In this Spirit's plan non of God's children would be lost. He would do this by eliminating our ability to choose evil. We would only be able to choose good. In return this Spirit wanted all of God's power and glory. Most of God's children stuck with God's perfect plan. Some of them chose to follow the other Spirit. After everyone decided, God cast out the Spirit that had his own plan and all those that followed him. That Spirit became Satan.
But the point is that in our religion, it isn't a bad thing that we have the ability to choose evil. Evil actions are evil but the ability to choose is not. The idea that God would have us only choose good is evil for us.
But I figured our where our difference lies.
