I am a Christian - a student/teacher of the Manuscripts. I am non-denominational so I can't say I really fit in too well with your mainstream Christian Churches. This is mainly because whats in the Manuscripts is so much more an in-depth teaching than what they seem to grasp. Anyway, you seem to feel that your idea of a Godless existance is so sure, that suddenly any of us with the least amount of gray matter upstairs, would say "oh geez, what the hell was I thinking? Thank you so much for clearing me up on that!". But if you were to climb down from that soap box of yours for a moment, you would realize that for every single possibility you have for there to be no God, there is an equal possibility that there IS a God. The fact is that you really don't know. To say that you know for sure, would display your total arrogance to the point where even an idiot wouldn't pay you any mind. Any Scientist would tell you that lack of evidence either way leaves you right smack in the middle. You simply don't know. The very fact that you spend unspecified amounts of time trying to pull people away from their beliefs by "shaking your head, wondering about the educational system, laughing at the faithful, correcting them, dealing with their endless misspellings and logical fallacies - sometimes politely and sometimes not - reading ray comfort banana gaffs more than you can count, stating facts and ridiculing" is a statement within itself. Suggestions? You either take a medication to help you with your obvious obsessive-compulsive disorder, or else just start understanding that Christians are Christians because of something that has touched us, changed us, revealed a spiritual truth to our heart, that you cannot understand because its absent in you. Even if there were words to describe it, you wouldn't understand even the speech. It is completely foreign to you - maybe with all your working against it, you may one day come face to face with it, who knows? But as for now, you are setting yourself up as an enemy to God, and thats not a good state to be in. You don't even have the common sense to stay neutral. As for Science, I take my students on archiological digs twice a year. I have on my desk here in front of me, a mammoth tooth and the lower leg bone of a bird, approximate date is about 14,000 years old. When you hear crazy people who call themselves "creationists" running around insisting the Bible says the Earth is about 6000 years old, you have just heard a bunch of nuts talking. The Bible does not state this Earth is 6000 years old, it states quite the opposite: that this Earth is eons in age, and that there was even an entire Earth age before this one we live in now. Not a different Earth, not a new terrafirma, only the AGE changed. There is no controversy between true science and the Truth in Gods Word. none. There is no reason for any person to have to jump onto either the Science bandwagon or the religious one - the Scriptures and Science work quite well together. I applaud all the new Scientific finds and celebrate them along with the hard-working Scientists who discover them. I am very often called in by many of them to translate early Greek and Aramaic inscriptions when found. You are a very shallow, closed-minded individual. A little good 'ol fashioned truth might be just what you need. Well, either that or a good swift kick in the ***.
