[The Father says,] As long as the eye watches, illumined by the knowledge of Me and of herself, she continues to pray with the prayer of holy desire… This is what the soul does in order to rise from imperfection and arrive at perfection, and it is to this end, namely that she may arrive at perfection, that I withdraw from her, not by grace but by sentiment.

Hmm… I’d personally be surprised if God gave anyone the choice. =D

Well, you know, the professor has defied the imagination before.
