What do you think of Augustine's views that man should not follow his own will ? read details?

Augustine had many good ideas, and having been born on his saint's day, I have always been interested in him, but this was not one of his best thoughts. I prefer to remember him as one of the first people to propose a theory of evolution, based on the Bible. I drove the poor nuns crazy with that one! Unfortunately, Augustine knew that no one can fully know the mind of God and the only guide most Christians belief that they have is the Bible (and other religions their scriptures) and those words were written by humans who are imperfect. They may have done their best to reveal what God had to say to humans, but even words are limited in exposing that knowledge and most mystics admit that their revelations are ineffable. Moreover, we must believe that God has a presence in all our lives, not just in spokespersons. Augustine was a person who believed that his life made him a particularly good spokesperson and, if truth be told, he probably believed people should believe what HE said as the voice of God. He, too, was an imperfect human being.
