Chapter 1
-it was interesting to see the difference between pantheism and the other idea of God. It would be weird to have grown up in a pantheistic society. I don't think we really understand how they believe. Everything about how they look at stuff is so different. We must sound crazy to them for a totally different reason than we might think just because our viewpoints are so different.

Chapter 2
-Simple is not really simple. Suppose that makes sense. Wish things could be so simple.
-Bad coming from good was thought provoking. Never really sat back and thought about that much. It does tend to make sense. Usually just think of bad being the opposite of good. Like polar opposite, black vs white, yin vs yang, but that's not quite the case.

Chapter 3
-In accordance with his will was another good way to put something. God makes allowances for wrong decisions even though he has a desire for us to do it a certain way. Good way to do stuff. Or at least its logical according to how we do stuff on earth as people.
-Car engines run on Gas, people run on God. We're dumb enough to believe and do otherwise. People love to be in awe of greatness. When our awe is directed at God then its in the right direction. It's probably why people have always been worshipers of something regardless of time or society.
-Then lunatic, liar, or lord. Jesus must be one of the three and its a good way to categorize it. love him, hate him, but not both.
