Addi, You said, "By profession I am a software Architect. I create software, and as is the norm in this profession my software do have bugs and errors. It is always much easier for me to fix the bug and error than someone else who is not familiar with the design and the code to fix it." Well said, when it comes to things that don't require absolute perfection. If you have been in the software field for a long time you know that the general acceptance rate for a program functioning properly is 80%. Yes, a program must be perfect to compile, but I am not talking about compiling. Compiling has no bearing on a program functioning 100% correctly. If you write a program, generally the main portions run right, especially the ones that are crucial and are tested the most. But if you took every program path, including all errors and logic paths, you will find little things wrong here and there. I have seen programs run for 10 years flawlessly, but one day some unforseen, unknown data comes into that the program, that it never saw before, or could be imagined by a programmer when designed and written, and right in front of your eyes, a problem appears! You see Addi, many want to consider themselves perfect, but no matter how we try, we can not be. That's where God comes in. We need him the most in this area, to bridge the gap of perfection for us. Because God is the only perfect one! And he will give us perfect answers if we ask, about himself and any question or problem you might have. But you must have an open mind and heart when asking! Now in order to get this world right, men can get do a little here and there to make it better for a time. But it will cycle good and bad this way, just as the world does. The more we take of God's guidance, the better the world will be. But everyone doesn't always take God's guidance. So we need someone perfect to straighten it out for us, 100% of the way. And that can only be accomplished by God! And one day he promises he will do so!!!!! I can't wait for that time!!!!! God Bless, IGIT
