Double Standards (General)

Double standards can be applied to all ideas and should be avoided. I do not apply different standards to theological issues. I have chosen one type of standardized God, all powerful, all omniscient, etc. to start with. He creates for the sake of creating without any self-interest involved. He had one major purpose, to produce humans whose mental capacities would be aware of God. I feel free to pick and choose theistic ideas I like, for example, Plantinga's idea of God's action due to morally sufficient reason. I have chosen panentheism as a basis for God, both within and without His universe. This is an example of how I build a personal theology. Process theology, deism, etc. are all out there for us to view, pick and choose, for we are allowed to make choices, and if ideas are obviously unequal, they can be picked or not picked, based entirely on choice.
