I want to thank you and everyone else on this thread for what I learned these last few days. As I have said a number of times over the years, one of the reasons I join these religion threads, is to try and learn about people, and why they believe as they do. I haven't figured that out yet, but what I have learned, is that many people seem to require reinforcement or some form of validity/proof for their own beliefs/faith. This appears to manifests itself in the constant, and sometimes repeated, requests for proof or validation from me, of my beliefs. While I almost always qualify my statements with the fact that I do not possess, nor have a need for, any substantiating evidence for my belief in God, sometimes, this doesn't seem to get across to people. Many think that I know these things to be fact. I try to remind people, that I am the first person to say that I might very well be wrong.

While it may appear to you, that I am anti-Christian, believe me, I am not anti- any religion. It's just that I frequent FreeRepublic, and the only religion threads, are Christian based. If their were any others, I would gladly ask them the same questions.
