Insights Do Not Equal Agreement

I posted Bill Nunan's link yesterday to spark some thinking. I was impressed with his insights, but I do not agree with them.

In fact, I do believe that God tweaks the laws of nature when He so desires. I just don't think He does so often, because it is seldom necessary to do so in order to accomplish His purposes.

As to the question of whether or not God can be surprised, that may be a dip into the sea of anthropomorphism. Entering human experience,, Jesus was subject to surprise, shock, and disappointment. In eternity, God's "emotions" are so beyondour understanding as to almost be a waste of time discussing.

What impressed me about Nunan is that people can come to belief in God without having to have every "WHY" question answered.
