Law courts require a certain standard
of objective evidence to prove something,
unlike faith which is subjective and can
fluctuate wildly from one individual to
another.

I'm rather confident you would not want
to be convicted of a crime based on the
personal faith of law enforcement, judge
and jury...lest of course you be one to buy
into witchhunts and burning heretics.

Are you requiring proof (of the supernatural) beyond any doubt? Do you think there is an intelligent creative force at the center of things? How do you believe the universe came into being? I do understand how someone like you could look at the world and say "if there is a God he must be a perverse entity to create this". There is a lot that cannot be explained but I don't believe something can come from nothing and before you say it I remember my mother stammering and not able to come up with an answer when I was maybe 5 years old. I asked her "well where did God come from". I am going to ask that you keep thinking on this and keep your mind open to the fact that any of us can be wrong in our assumptions. You are obviously not stupid. God bless.


Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
