Conversations with God 3

Again, what does it mean that God is all-powerful. I would think that it means that God is in control of all things. Then what should us humans do? In essence, we should only worry about the small things in life. We should let the minds with the know-how handle the bigger general things in life. We should only worry about the specific and even in the specific, we need to pray to God to make sure that his control is not being challenged. Now, I am going to take an example for Carl Gustav Jung's psychiatric sessions. There was one woman who was attracted to walking in a dangerous part of her neighborhood somewhere in Europe. She kept on walking there because the danger thrilled her. Some women cannot distinguish danger from passion. This woman had a dream which expressed a wish-fulfillment to be raped. Later the rape actually happened and I believe she was brutalized. Who's responsible for the rape if God is in control of everything? The rapist was being controlled by God when he raped the woman. The woman wanted the rape to happen as a form of strange, erotic wish-fulfillment. God was controlling the woman and the man so no one is responsible. In other words, there is no sin if God is all powerful. It's all either Satan or God's fault ultimately and they are infinitely more powerful than us so the only thing we can do is to believe in God who is, at least to us, both good and evil. If you actually believe this, what is the point of the cruxifixion of Christ. What is the point of God's grace? The whole point of Christian life becomes Works... to build God's kingdom on earth to fight Satan, who has been around since Age Immemorial, who is still lifting up the carrot of self-actualization, self-deification in a world with one life to live. So human blame has disappeared when people believe this and if so, are these Christians blameless before God and has the pain of life being plucked out of them? The pain of life is what gives rapture to life. It's also what contributes to the eroticism of our souls. Again, I don't mean "erotic" in the sense of sexual excess or aesthetics. I mean erotic in the sense that the three parts of the soul: mind, spirit, emotion are making love to each other and actually delighting in each other's presence. To get back, is this what evangelicals or hard-core evangelicals believe? So, God is literally having coffee with us and is involved in every aspect of our lives, even the sexual (I don't know why God would want to know about my sex life.) and these Christians openly confess their deepest sins to priests or reverends who tell it to other priests or reverends like in a Seinfeld episode and everyone knows everything about everyone else and there is no demarcation between the personal and the public, no public masks or personas to wear, just our nude or naked faces before a God who already knew that you would do that. So there's no repression, then later no dreams I suppose for dreams express repressed content, and just oneness with the illumination of God. This is very deceptive too. For what one may actually be feeling is sometimes libido, sometimes repressed sexual pleasure, and maybe so often pleroma, but in the end, all these forms of personal and psychological experiences are pleasures and does not go beyond the pleasure principle. And all pleasures derive from Eros. So then you have to get rid of Eros, then Thanatos, then you come to the primal Libido. And then maybe Life-Consciousness of the Goddess, etc. But you cannot really live in this state forever and you are not really with God in this state. You are probably in a state of childish pleasure almost. You cannot have the high without the low. These states will sooner or later drag you down the Kundalini ladder to your most repressed, psychotic states. That is, if you follow the logic and exoerience of Nietzsche, Freud, Jung, and Joseph Campbell.
