As a matter of fact, it is clear in the Bible, if someone believes in it, that God DOES NOT want his word argued. He just wants it applied as it applies to you.
So, I'm a person who believes in God, considers myself of Christian persuation, but I'm not so lame to think my perception of Him puts Him in a box to be what I want Him to be nor do I have a right to demand that people have the same Boxed God that I may have.
Does that make sense? because sometimes I don't.

I SO agree with you, Merika!! Beautifully said! I totally believe in God and have since I was a child; and I believe my faith in Him made me the person I am today! I so believe in Love and kindness and goodness and just trying to be a good person every day! It doesn't always work that way every day, but at least I try...if I had no faith in God, I wouldn't try so hard to make someone's day just a little bit brighter, or say something bright to someone about themselves when they are wearing a frown...
