It's the same lie Satan told Eve in the garden, "you too can be as God and know all." The lie has never changed. Knowledge = power, power = god. All power, all glory goes to him who has all the cards. We strive to get the cards all for ourselves. It humbles man too much to bow down to another and admit powerlessness. <br /><br />When discussing Jesus with others, that's always my hardest hurdle.
