What are your thoughts on privacy issues we face post 9/11, post Snowden?

How can an all seeing, all powerful, all knowing, the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end, et al coexist with free will?

If you tell me that god knows everything past, present, and future, then he knew that I would type this. Therefore, that is predestination and not free will.

Don't lick your mail?

So, how do we hold the government's feet to the fire? Not wanting to make this a left v right issue but Trump...well he's Trump. And Biden, as much as everyone hails him as 'not as bad as', credited himself for scripting the Freedom Act/Patriot Act, and voted for it twice. That's a big black eye as far as I'm concerned because government never gets smaller. It grows exponentially. Seemingly benign decisions made today, will haunt us forever.

Not a trick question but, power corrupts. Do you honestly think that the government abides by their own rules?
