(January 10, 2012 at 10:10 pm)Godschild Wrote: Not a Mormon, I'm a christian who serves in a Southern Baptist Church. The reason I'm a Southern Baptist, if you are interested, I believe that they stand closer to the scriptures, though I do not hold with all their doctrine. I do value my relationship with God here on earth but, will enjoy it even more when I'm finally in the presence of God, in a new and everlasting body. I gave being in charge of a galaxy as a possible responsibility given by God, not just to me but anyone there. Was trying to show Heaven will not be a boring place.

Well you seem like a very level headed theist. I can always accept a theist's belief in a god based on their hunch in the absence of objective evidence for either side. What I can never accept is belief that the bible is the inerrant word of god. I really think you can either have faith in god, in which case you must set aside certainty in the bible - or - you can put your faith in the bible in which case you have no faith in god.
