> you'd just ignore threads like this.
You seem to ignore the possibility that threads such as this entertain me. Watching people go hyper to defend God from those who seek rational explanations... why, that's high comedy.
I've seen enough of your posts to recognize that you're not interested in rational explanations. You've got an emotional stake in the outcome. That's fine, but please don't try to play Mr. Rational on such threads -- your posts betray you.
Your questions don't offend me - in fact they help me dig deeper into the scriptures for answers - whether or not they seem rational to you.
And for that inquisition, I say "thanks"...
