I thought the quote was from Ayn Rand but it looks like a kindred spirit

She wrote “The Discovery of Freedom.” Awesome thinker.

My favorite quote of hers: As water judges a swimmer’s rightness in swimming, God judges a man’s rightness in living.

In other words God does not need to judge anyone, he set up living to do that. Like water supports the swimmer unless he does nothing and drowns. The water offers resistance so the swimmer can move. And if the swimmer flails around and doesn’t move correctly, he tires and drowns. But the swimmer who uses the water correctly he is supported, moves tirelessly, and prospers. Lane told about Abraham who first said there was but one God and not the plethora a gods as the Greeks and Romans believed and which gods controlled everything even whether an arrow would strike an enemy or to whom one would fall in love. He said God does not control men and that man had free will.
