Christopher Hitchens once said: “Once we assume a creator and a plan, it makes humans objects of a cruel experiment whereby we are created to be sick and commanded to be well.”
And Christianity feels like a cruel experiment at times since the Bible is full impossible commands that we can never live by. This is why God gives irresistible grace.
