Re: other intelligent life
Hi Ken
Lastly, according to the Bible all the creations of God who have personality have freewill - Angels, fallen angels, and man. Evidently, freedom of will is important to God.
How does this square with Jonah then?
Jonah did not want to go to Nineveh, God forced him to go, therefore God did not respect Jonah's free will. Jonah also wanted to die, God did not allow him to die. There seems to be evidence that contradicts your 'exegesis'.
