Question about meaning and perception of reality from a theist.

I believe everything exists as a possibility of physical reality. The only thing I can assert with 100% certainty is that at this very instant I am perceiving something. Everything else is just beliefs about what I am perceiving.

If an irrational person strings some words together on a forum where rational people dwell, will he have actually communicated anything. I'm guessing not. I'm not quite sure why you think you are here, anklebiter, but assuming it has something to do with saving us from eternal damnation .. please cut it out. To each his own. You go pack for heaven. We'll savor the life we have right now. If you're right please just have a good laugh at our expense but don't worry so much about what our delusional fate may be. Trust me, most of us would do a double back flip into the lake of fire before we'd join you at the foot of your master and put up with all that elevator harp music.
