lol- how do you know I have a troubled soul?

Heehee
Oh egocentric one- you are the one who came here to talk about atheists and foxholes.

You have seen evidence I would not see- of that I am positive. People all over the globe find evidence to justify themselves in their Gods- whatever those Gods may be. The fact that YOU can find evidence for your own beliefs doesn't really surprise me. I would guess you can see signs and portents in all kinds of things- that is a way a lot of people go. And if you think I'm angry you are way off base. I am afraid of true believers- but only the ones who represent a danger to others. I have no way to know if you are that kind of true believer or not- and unlike you I don't need to judge you, because I don't KNOW you. I don't KNOW if you foist your religion on others. How could I know that?

As for your comments about goodness- well, again you are WAY off base. What I know about goodness is my internalized empathy compass- based on ALL my experience WITH OTHER PEOPLE LIVING IN SOCIETY (that saves me from thinking wrong is right in case I am around "bad" people who tell me wrong is right). If you do not have such an internal compass and need an external guide- I can't really relate. I know what "good" and "bad" behavior are and I am able to judge my own conduct. I think sociopaths are the only people completely unable to do that. Are you one of them?

And as I made clear, it's all just MY opinion. I'm not elaborating some opinion of God, or trying to read the mind of God, or trying to tell you what I think God might be trying to tell me if he WAS trying to tell me something.

I am always where I should be with what I should have where ever I am. So don't go worrying about MY troubled soul. Maybe you are projecting your own troubled soul onto my peaceful and happy one? JUST a thought.
