Human decisions are made from our cognative ability based on our 5 senses. For example, when a large semi-truck is speeding towards you an a highway, WHY does the normal person jump out of the way? What reason? Because the person is recieving visual data (light) being reflected off the truck, and possibly because you can hear it. But it's that combined with our cognative ability to understand what that data means. You come to the conclusion to jump out of the way because you can SEE the truck someing in the form of PHYSICAL DATA.
So, we make decisions based on data recieved from our sensations, It's an undeniable, psychological fact.
My question: How does a being that exists outside of the physical universe 'recieve data' to make decisions on? Does anyone else realize that it is impossible to make a decision without PHYSICAL INFORMATION to make a COGNATIVE choice based apon?

Think about it, A blind man and a Regular man are walking down the street, a car speeding right at them approaches. The regular man jumps out of the way, the blind man does not, and gets hit. The two men made different decisions, why? Because one could SEE the car and one COULDNT. Thats proof decision is based on physical information.

I would assume that an omnipresent, omnipotent and divine being, if same actually exists, would indeed have access to the same sensory input as do humans, plus sensory input on a metaphysical level. But as an agnostic, perhaps I'm not the best one to answer your question.

What decisions has he made lately in person ? Now GW Bush tells us that God told him to invade Iraq but God hasn't made a formal announcement in person so do we have faith in the claimant ?

You're comparing man's thought process with God's. Talk about comparing apples and oranges!God operates spiritually. Did you mean cognitive?

You don't think a limited human being can really tell you how or why God does anything?
