Me making an effort and him avoiding and cherry picking:
As long as he's not behaving like this towards anyone else, eh? [/sarcasm]

So, I'd care in the sense of "I'm glad I know the truth and know that the universe indeed does contain a deity".
So my question now is... why should I care beyond that? Because I think that's the question that is begged.
I'll remind you how my contribution began in this thread:
"Well, let's start with a real basic and simple reason" - Me, HERE, emphasis mine.
And then this:
"something tells me a "baby-steps" approach would be our best shot of shedding light on any of this" - Me, HERE
Then carefully read these:
"I won't pretend to be the one who will provide this possibility [i.e. a description of the relation between you and god which is a convincing reason to care if it exists or not] for you, but it is my hope"
"I don't mean to imply I have a different god than any other Christian, but I try to form a fuller picture of the Christian god every day. Being able to communicate that picture... not so easy." - Me, HERE

1. I said I would play along and I did.
2. Are you satisfied with my answer?
3. Are you going to answer my follow up question?
I've been answering it with other people. I'd rather not have to repeat myself in responding to 4 different people. You can catch up. I believe in you.
