I'm sorry that reality doesn't jive with your fantasy, really. You're welcome to believe what you like, just as long as you don't stuff it in my face, or restrict my freedom based on what you think your god wants.
It wasn't my post that started this. But..my post will end it. I have NEVER tried to force my beliefs on anybody..unlike the atheists who constantly try to prove the unprovable. My belief is totally
faith-based, and I, nor any other person whom believes in God can prove
it either. That said..any other word on this subject from me will be in the appropriate sub. I apologize for my outburst and you have a GREAT weekend!
I was watching Gods Warriors last night.

Add a beard and any one of those CHRISTIAN fellows could fill in for
the Ayetohla. There was a nickles worth of difference between the lot
of them. They each KNOW they are RIGHT, the choosen...
The Christian leaders have an agenda that scarries me silly. The want
this to be a Christian nation. ADopt the bible lock, stock, and barrel.
YOU say YOU don't want to force anything on anyone... well enough of
your fellow beleivers want to do exactly that.
And when it comes to PROVING anything, there is more than one way to
prove something. The notion of a supernatural being can be ruled out.
That doesn't require proving anything else.
Haveing said all that, I STILL hold to the beleif that you and everyone
else has the inate right to beleive exactly how they wish. You don't
need to prove anything to anyone to do so.
Why spritial leaders persist is beyond me.
It all boils down how you behave and maintain yourself.
No one NEEDS any gods to do that.
BTW Christiane Amanpour is a 'Hottie' in my book.
