I'm not really offended by this, but I've got different views. I believe in God, but I have never really believed in fate, that God had set out this purpose for us from the beginning. I believe that you control your actions, and that whoever God is can only send you telepathic messages as your conscience. After my mom got cancer and died, I first blamed the mess on God, but then I realize that there was nothing he could really do about it. I guess I consider God like an all-knowing, good, telepathic person, but otherwise he's like a normal figure who can only offer comfort, sympathy, and help. I'm Jewish, by the way.
