>Satan also knows scripture. He also twists it, or uses portions of it, to suite his purposes. But in each case where he tried to test Jesus in the wilderness, Jesus replied with "It is also written..." to correct him.

>There is a strait path, Charles, through the narrow gate. It's there for all to see. There is no monopoly on access to God. Jesus reveals Himself to all, and to all who will receive Him, He comes in and eats with them, as they also eat with Him.

I accept that your expression of your belief is done in the spirit in which you intend it.
I also would consider any technical opinion you render quite suspect as I don't believe your grip on reality is strong enough to make the kind of rational evaluations necessary to properly perform in a technical profession. I wish you well in your spiritual journey and would hope no one is investing a lot of money in your technical expertise.
Declaring the world sucks is a philosophical position. Offering it as an alternative explanation for gravity is guaranteed to marginalize you as a scientist.
Charles Hankey
Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
