(IOW, I am again concerned about your possibility of Salvation given your tendency towards subtle heresy)
CL's understanding is right in line with Catholic doctrine.
Thanks MA

I guess I just have a hard time taking it seriously when you say things like that, and fail to acknowledge all of the horrible implications of the aforementioned 'perfect design' that went horribly wrong in more ways than we can count. I would understand if you believed in a creator/designer god out of fear but absolutely cannot understand that you could possibly love or worship it.
I'm not saying we are perfect or that nature is perfect. We as Christians are the first to say this is a flawed world. What I meant is that everything lined up perfectly in order for intelligent life to be possible here.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
