Of course, this way you won't look foolish in trying to refute my claims.
Well done. My mind is made up because I grew up. I stopped believing in fairy stories a long time ago. The real shame is the fact that you do not seem to have the capacity for rational thought. But what can you do, crackpot religious types are all the same. So yes, indeed let us end this here and now.
You make me smile. No one is so blind as he who will not see, nor as deaf as he who will not hear.

She used to be a 'religious crackpot', in her own words.
Ha ha "because I grew up". That really makes me laugh. Funny, the church I am in is full of elderly people. They are wonderful, gentle folk full of love and caring. I will choose that over mockery and sarcasm any day. FYI, they look a whole lot younger and are more sprightly than one would think they would be at their age.
No matter what proof, what science, what 'irrefutable evidence' one brings to your attention, you will still fight and argue. It is sad, terribly, terribly sad. Were even C.S. Lewis or J.R.R. Tolkien here, you would laugh at them too.
Did you know that water consists of two atoms, hydrogen and oxygen? Of course you do. You know of course that Oxygen has eight electrons, Hydrogen two? Together, when joined, they consist of 10 electrons. Two distinct atoms that join to form one new atom, which brings life and flows through this world.
Ten is the number of completion. What has this to do with religion, you snort?
Well, just a little mathematics for those who maybe, just maybe, humble themselves for 5 seconds, enough to actually, look, seek, question.
There are many indicators in nature pointing to God. 7 is a godly number, 12, 40, 10. 8 is the number of infinity. 3. We are the 3rd rock from the sun. Water is often a symbol for the Spirit. Remember Him? The one you swore at recently?
Without the planet Jupiter, we would have been extinct. How can it be mere coincidence that such a gigantic planet should be so strategically placed?
What better way for any intelligent being to communicate than through the Universal language of mathematics. It is God's way of saying "I AM Here".
DO give Sarah Miles' little intro a read, will you?

But, like I said, and Will said, no matter what anyone says you still will not believe. Some take comfort in mockery and scorn. I cannot for the life of me grasp why anyone would choose lies over belief.
There are so many wonderful examples of a Divine Presence throughout Nature.
