Thank you for your clarification. I understand what you are saying now. (We have been in discussions in the past, and I seem to recall misunderstanding you every time. LOL Maybe I'm trying too hard. Sorry about that).

I appreciate your pro-life point of view and respect the intelligent posts I’ve seen you make (although I can’t say I’ve agreed with you most of the time). :)

I don't believe that there is some "Greater Power" that assigns "value" to objects in the universe such that humans are somehow "superior" to rocks in the eyes of some imaginary greater being. I do believe that humans, as a whole, tend to value human life over rocks, and they behave accordingly.

And now for a great big AUUUGGGHHHH!!!!!. I'm sorry but I just don't get it, being an atheist and all. I really don't. I don't get it. I can't, I can't, I can't. I try to put myself in other’s shoes to feel what they feel and this is probably the only thing in life I just cannot comprehend or even fathom.

What have you got to lose by believing in God? It's so easy really. Can't you just try for 24 hours? Just give it a try and see what happens. I just absolutely cannot believe for one minute there ISN'T a "greater power" in the universe assigning a value of human superiority (over rocks and tadpoles).

UGH!!!!!! I'm sorry but I can't continue this discussion without getting off topic of this beautiful picture thread. You are welcome to freepmail me if you care to do so. Maybe if you would explain to me privately why you don’t believe there is a God, perhaps there is a chance I could come to understand your point of view better. I would like to understand

BTW, God is NOT imaginary. Just because you don’t believe he is here, doesn’t mean he isn’t.
