But from the christian perspective, this life is but a tiny part of our existence. We aim to do what God wills for us here and then move on to eternity. So we look at things from the perspective of eternity, rather than the short time that we spend here in this world.
I'm sorry; I must've missed the part where you proved you were a telepath, or where I said I thought that "our life in the world is the entirety of [my] existence". Tell me more about myself, please. Have you heard of the James Randi challenge, by the way?

In these threads, the atheists are all like, "Well, I'm that one guy." I'm sorry. I don't buy it. I've played enough poker to know the difference between the talk and the action. I just think a lot of the responses to these threads are all talk and no trouser.
See above. Don't presume to speak for anyone but yourself. I've played lots of poker too, you know, so we have that in common. One thing we don't have in common, however, is that I'm inside my own head. Not you. I know what I think, and, unless I state it outright, you don't... most of the time, anyway. You can probably infer from this post that I'm angry at you and Lek, who are apparently psychic.
To put this into perspective, imagine if you said you loved your pet bunny (for the sake of argument, assume you have a pet bunny that you love). I then came along and said that you were lying and/or deluding yourself into believing that, but that you actually always wanted to sacrifice your bunny to Satan in the most horrible way imaginable. This is an exaggeration, of course, but I think (hope) you get my point.
The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything?
