First, briefly addressing the topic, my thoughts go out to the Reeves' young son. I cannot imagine what he's going through at such a young age, and hope he's in good hands. That is, good EARTHLY hands.
Second, I have many reasons for rejecting the Christian theology, and statements such as yours above (and elsewhere in this thread) only confirm that rejection. For I cannot accept any of today's unsupported-by-evidence preaching as a "light" that I have been "given." My life has been interrupted on occasion by Christians "witnessing" something they admit happened 1900+ years before they were born. Like you, they speak with courtesy, passion, conviction, and familiarity with whatever they believe in. What's lacking, however, is any trace of EXPLANATION. Hint: "Just look at the world! It HAD to have been designed by a God, it JUST HAD to," and "Oh, you just gotta have faith, just make that leap and you'll be saved" are not much in the way of explanation. I DO respect your beliefs and mean no rudeness at all, but my only response to such a "light" would be a polite request to quit shining it in my face. And most definitely in the faces of those who recently lost loved ones.
..but if you don't like the 'explanations' from those around you...
..would you consider the Bible as the true explanation.
There isn't any better.

The Bible IS the explanation. If you reject that, you have rejected the primary means of knowing God for yourself.
