As for me, I'll continue to walk and sing in the sunshine and enjoy MY world which has a loving God, who didn't create and send to the world BAD babies - My God is a loving God, not a vengeful one - except on those who eventually turn wicked.

If yours is a good God, why is there evil in the world? Is He not very powerful? What authority do you claim for knowing anything about God? Has He spoken to you, or do you have some other communication from Him?

How do you know He is good, when there is so much pain and suffering in the world? It's fine to talk of singing in the sunshine, but it rains too.

Ever hear of the greates gift God gave to mankind - FREE WILL?

What authority do you claim for knowing anything about God? Has He spoken to you, or do you have some other communication from Him?

Hmmm - What authority have I to know anything about God? hmmmm. Are we NOT supposed to know anything about God? I thought that was the whole idea - to learn all we can about God?

I thought Jesus taught us this: John 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him..."

As for 'communication." Ever hear about the 'still small voice'?

or how about Jesus' promise: "16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17 Even the Spirit of truth; ...but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you... 26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. "

For just a couple examples.

My motto: "If Jesus said it

I believe it."

And thus ends my communication with you... the doctrine of pearls and all...

wishing you a happy life.
