As darkness is the opposite of light, and ugliness is the opposite of beauty, so domination and manipulation are the opposite of love. And God is love. So if we imagine that God is into domination and manipulation, we are confusing good and evil, and mistaking Christianity for witchcraft. Tragically, however, this is the very deception that many who think themselves Christian fall into. Although here are those who keep clinging to what they mistakenly suppose is Christianity, I am not surprised that many witches started off as Christians. When God turns out not to be the manipulator they hope for, they go direct to the source of evil. I find myself incapable of despising or fearing such people. Often they do not even realize they are connecting with evil; they are simply following the logical implications of confusing good and evil by defining good as getting ones own way. Of course, they never wanted to be victims of supernatural manipulation but this is the inevitable result craving supernatural power to manipulate others and exalt themselves. Heres why my heart breaks for them: often such people have suffered appalling abuse and are driven by fear into wanting to be control freaks, in the hope that it will prevent a repeat of such abuse. The good Lord is a disappointment to them because, despite having infinite power, he is not an abuser of his power who manipulates and dominates. And we wants us to be like him.
