A few hundred people on the planet have a good grasp on that, so don't feel like you're missing a sandwich.
However, I am the Rhonda and understanding doesn't mean I have no more questions.
Everything in the universe has a counterpart to balance it. If there's dark matter, why isn't there dark gravity to balance dark energy? Why is dark energy the only thing in the universe that has no counterpart?
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
