>>Well God is the same way. I do not do certain things because I know that I will have to face him one day for those things I have done. I also do not wish to have God be disappointed in my behavior here on Earth.

>I do not do certain things because of my sense of standards amd values, not because of fear for some supposedly highly powerful, but never demonstrated, creature. I am in the position to freely think about arguments people come with and then eventually update my standards and values. From a psychological/developmental perspective you are still in a phase that is normal for children of a certain age: You still believe in ghosts (sorry, one ghost). You've never seen the creature really, but nevertheless you are sure the creature is real. And, to further track down your phase to even younger children: You still fear the creature.

Well thank you for your analysis. But since you want to attack my mental development, then I guess the civil back and forth is over. I wish you well as you seek what you want out of life. I have found what I need and I am content in knowing that my heavenly father watches over me with the same love and compassion that my earthly father did. I may not see God as to give you the proof which you seem to seek, but I know the true meaning of faith and I contend everyday to maintain that faith, until my race is done.

IWPFY..
