Where does scripture say that? This has to be your own opinion

This is silly pure philosophy, but let's go. I make a car. I can control it. That doesn't mean I have to. That doesn't mean I can't hand it to someone else who can do whatever he wants to with it.

Your philosophical argument was just so bad, I had to pipe in.
