Brian, I sure wouldn't want to be in your shoes in the not too distant future when you stand before the "Supreme force," and you explain to Him that you are an "environmentally aware progressive" who doesn't believe in a Messiah.
"EVERY knee will bow, and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord." Even you Brian. Even you.
I pray that you may come to know Him before that day.

was still work to be done.
BigMtMn, if there was ever a messianic Jesus, I am sure he had a much better sense of humor than you---and was nowhere near as thin-skinned.
