If I was able to change life according to my will, we'd be looking at the greatet disaster imaginable.
Not because that's what I want, I don't, but because it's the most likely outcome for even the best of intentions paired with tremendous power over something we don't even begin to understand.
We should be so grateful that we aren't gods... if we were, we'd turn into demons in no time.

Interesting viewpoint and I think the phrase "with great power comes great responsibility" holds a lot of truth.
IMHO, power is a daemonificus, a demon-maker.
You want to turn a good man into a demon? Give him power.
What is power if not the ability to do evil (violate other people's rights) with impunity?
