This is incorrect at the get-go..."that we are subjected to the will of some almighty thing and we have no choice in the matter"...
First of all no religious person would tell you that because the whole problem with mankind is that they have free will and ARE able to choose. God is certainly not a dictator, nor is He oppressive...if He wanted to make robots...He would have made robots.
This is some truth mixed with much fantasy. Freedom comes from being in a right relationship with God...and you are free to believe that or not. God went to a lot of trouble to provide an avenue of reconciliation through the shed blood of Jesus on the cross...again your choice to believe or disbelieve.
We are made in the image of God but we are NOT, nor will we EVER be God. Call Him what you will, our spirit knows there is a God and yes, we know something is wrong...it is called sin. Again, choose to believe or not.
The energy that you see present in the world is the creative energy of God that keeps the world going. Mankind cannot create...he can only transform what already exists. When you meet God you will never be mistaken about who He is and what He embodies...the perfection of everything that is wrong with the world and it's people...why even the rocks cry out in worship and satan intimately knows God.
So to believe or not to believe...that is the question and it is your individual choice to make that decision...one way or another. There is only ONE truth..."and ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free"...your choice.
