God Decides
While this topic is very complex,
God already knows all the answers to every question and problem.God is a math genius, and a genius in everything else too.
God decides, God designs, God defines.
As humans, we have wide-ranging free wills, and we are intent on using our free wills continuously.
Two-year-olds are living proof of this.
Oddly enough, part of maturing into a wise person is learning when it is beneficial to subordinate our free wills
to forces greater than ourselves, like the law of the land, or the law of physics,
to improve our own prospects in life, to avoid penalties, or to help others we care about.
Obeying speed limits, living economically, living quietly, yet pressing for what is right and good, gives us better lives.
.
Some folks try to stretch their free wills over things which they have no control.
Automobile stopping distances, determined by physics and road conditions, care nothing of our opinions.
Gravity, as a form of energy, either helps us or harms us, depending on our submission to it.
And we never really conquer gravity, we just use a different form of energy to suspend its power over us for a time.
Even Wile E. Coyote knows this. Or does he?
.
God invented mathematics and all the sciences that math supports.
God designed our physical world, based on decisions He made before He spoke all things into existence.
God designed the souls of angels and humans, with their free wills, with limits to the type of behavior He will accept.
Therefore, God has an innate right to define all things, including emotions.
.
He also has the right to aggressively defy any definition that He does not agree with.
God has the right to define love,
He reserves the right to define hate.
He holds the definition of simple lust and greed.
.
God has the right to define physical tenderness,
and He holds the right to define sexual abuse.
.
In the process of using our free wills,
we need to be certain that our decisions fall within the definitions of what is good or bad,
according to what God has declared to be good or bad.
