All throughout my life I have listened to and responded to the higher force, although many people have assisted me in my quest. I trust God very much and have gratitude for may existence. Gratitude for one's life is the foundation of happiness.

Good for you! But in my experience, people who trust God and are grateful for what He has done for them generally don't attempt to tear down the sincere beliefs of other people. Would you care to apologize for your initial comment on this thread, or do you want to leave me with the distinct impression that you are a hypocrite?

Whatever you decide is okay by me. By the way, my church will be organizing a work day to help those in need in Sonoma County. I invite you to participate in this day of serving others. I promise that no one will try to convert you while we're painting the walls of a battered womens' shelter....
