I'm not very tolerant of folks pushing their ideology on me especially when that ideology is based neither in science nor historical fact. Faith is great. It lets people exceed their self-imposed limitations..but, the intellectual bottom line is the faith argument is "this is the truth because I believe it's the truth though I can't prove it." I'm not saying you are wrong - but, it is a poor substitute for more measurable observations.
Thank you so much. I totally agree. Faith is great but we all seem to follow a different road. Which one is right? We won't know until we are dead. John Lennon told his wife that if he would ever die-

before that assho** shot him dead-

He would come back- if he could- and Let her know that he was okay-

Poor guy never did. So believe what you may. hell, heaven, reincarnation, whatever-

truth is- we won't know til we are dead-

then it's too late.

Just sayin'!!
