Ok. But, God hasn't weighed in on anything yet,

Sure! But I'm talking the BIG picture here!

Never said that! We search. God? I found!

Excellent thought! I just carry it a step further to include God.
And I just read a great quote somewhere, that we should have found a reason for living...by the end of our time here!
Here's hoping that we both do! Gudnite bro!

1. If a man tells his children, live with me forever or I'll throw you in a burning pit to burn forever. Is he Christlike or is he abusive?
2. Do you acknowledge the possibility that god doesn't exist?
Sorry dear! I thought I did in a round-a-bout way!
1. I believe God is Christlike.
2. No. I never thought that God didn't exist.
*a caveat: at times I felt He wasn't around! But now I realize it was me pushing myself away from Him.
