Perhaps by doing magic - and all magic comes with a price. If you bend the will of the Universe to fit your own, that can change some things. But you may find that in the end, it didn't really matter. The Universe will find balance. Save a life here, cause a natural disaster somewhere else. Was the life you saved worth it - does the child you twisted destiny to save become a Saint or a Monster, having been allowed to continue? Hmmm.

Believers want to say the future can be changed because of you. God has a plan for you and knows all about you, but you have to fall in with god's plan. Confused yet? They jack this around because of their "free will." The bottom line is simple. If god knows everything then there is nothing to do and nothing to change. Nobody to save and no reason to save them. If god knew you were going to hell from day one he wouldn't give a damn about you. If the future can be changed then maybe god will heal the child and then maybe not. If not, you didn't hold your mouth right, didn't jump up and down enough, or didn't stand on one leg. Maybe you had some hidden sin.
Whatever it is just remember that you have "free will" and it might be your fault that god didn't do anything. It keeps believers jumping because everything has to be all about them. Imagine it is your fault that god doesn't heal those poor kids at St. Jude. You didn't have enough "praying power" because your brother is gay and it's all your fault.

Yup..one of the many reasons religious people are trained to check their brains at the church door. If God is all powerful and in control of everything, why pray? Why go to work? Why take medicine, if being sick is "god's will."
You have to be brain numbed to accept such nonsense.
By the way, this website has a bit of a learning curve so here is some information that might be helpful for dating here.
New members are encouraged to earn website points, and help other members get to know them better, by writing an informational profile that includes their hobbies and interests, and answering all the profile questions, since that's the first place many people look when they see a new member.
The website uses profile algorithms to find member matches, so the more details one includes, the better the match.
Also many women prefer to see a written profile talking about interests, hobbies, and backgrounds that can be quickly perused to find compatible partners.
People make comments and write their own posts to earn more points and privileges; for instance, at level two someone can private email people. There are different perks with each level, and when you reach level eight you get an agnostic T-shirt.
To find members near you, click on the "Meet" button at the top of the page, then on "Members," and enter your preferred search parameters.
Or click on the "About" button at the top of the page to find links to FAQ or the website tutorial.
