<The Father is a person the Son is a person and the Holy Spirit is a person. That means that the Godhead is personal. You are apparently not intelligent enough to grasp that.>

No, I'm not...please feel free to elaborate how that works. Three different PEOPLE {one's a 'spirit, but a person as well I guess} all doing their own thing I suppose, as people do... put together to make one God who is a person... huh, not complex at all! LOL

<"any kind of Person you could pray to, or consider to be an appropriate recipient of gratitude (or anger, when a loved one is senselessly killed)," >

ANY kind of person you would show gratitude to? OOUCH! Wowa, I am an atheist. Lot's of those gods running around.

<Do you pray to or thank an impersonal force?>

Actually I'm thankful for my existance... thankful and grateful are feelings that don't need any particular target... they can be your primary emotionial state... we'll maybe not YOURS, but some people. That is one of the pervasive messages in the Catholic Ucharistic ceremony... should check it out.

As for praying, I don't "pray to" a picture in my head of Jesus on the cross that we have in the church, or that I saw growing up if that's what you mean? You pray to pictures? To people? Neither to I pray to some idea of force. OTOH, as a PERSON WHO PRAYS, I suppose anything I do is "personal" if that's what you mean. Hey, maybe I'm back in good with God!

<"Of course it is...omnipresent god? Everyone knows that!">

Huh... you your god isn't omnipresent... huh. I guess you're no more Christian than I am! I'm in again, and you're out.
