Hmmm… that is quite as stretch on the lose-win theme Craig. We all know what a win-win is. A win-lose is usually when we stick it to someone and win at their expense. A lose-win is usually when we roll over and let someone walk on us. A lose-lose is when we are intent on the other losing even if we go down in the process too.

Comment by Geoff J — March 22, am. Comment by Eric — March 23, am. So, what exactly do you or does Blake mean by freedom?

A Wallet, A Dollar, the Existence of God (Part 2 - Personal Theism)

Is it the freedom to choose the lesser of two distasteful options. Is it the freedom to choose to do what we would really like to do within the realm of the possible? If we are only free as long as we choose to do what God wants, are we really free? Take an every day example. I remain free as long as I pay my taxes.

So, am I free to not pay my taxes? Am I really? At what level of coersion to pay my taxes, would you say that I am no longer free to not pay my taxes?

Is there any level of coersion at which I am no longer free to not pay my taxes? It seems to me that we are operating with a merky definition of freedom—just as we in this country have always, to my knowledge, operated with a merky definition of democracy. What definiton of freedom are you or is Blake using? You are talking about political freedoms while Blake was discussing the philosphical doctrine of free will.

He argues that the commitment that God loves us and respects our dignity as persons entails that God must leave us free to choose whether to have a saving relationship with him. He explores the "logic of love" and argues that the LDS doctrine of a "war in heaven" embodies the commitment that God leaves us free to choose whether to enter into relationship with God.

He explores the nature of inter-personal prayer and the contributions of LDS beliefs to a robust prayer dialogue. He offers a view consistent with LDS commitments that makes sense out of asking God to assist others, to alter the natural environment and to grow in relationship with God. He then turns to the concept of grace and argues that the traditional views lead to insurmountable problems.

He argues that though God does not owe any obligation to us to give us grace, God does so out of love.
