I hope that's accurate, but I haven't seen it in my own experience yet.

I also see GOD every day. I wonder around my ranch talking to Jesus and my prayers are answered. GOD has performed mericles for me. PRAISE GOD

I believe in me. I look at myself each day in the mirror and ask what I would do.

I don't hide behind fictional characters and fictional philosophy-I look at the day as day and the night as night.
Lots of narcissists and egomaniacs out there. Sew What? Their self-exaltation is their problem, not ours.

It was only a matter of time before he revealed himself. There's still hope for him though.

When I was a boy, I was enthralled by the night sky--the moon, planets, stars and Milky Way. It was truly a magnificent mystery to me. My parents taught as much as they could, which was very basic. But when I got into HS, I became something of an amateur astronomer. There were no classes on the subject so I looked for every book in the library for something and found very little. After my tour in the navy, I went all out, hooked up with an astronomy club whose members had the 10 inch reflectors and 12 inch refractors. One family had a 16 inch Cassegrain. Throughout my time with them, I saw many many wonderful things out there. Now, after years of study and experience in the field and having been baptized as a Christian just 7 years ago, I have a completely fresh perspective on things.

Two questions I have occasionally asked an atheist is, first, why is our solar system situated in a relatively empty region of space between the spiral arms of our Milky Way galaxy?

Had our solar system been located within a spiral arm, we would be unable to see anything of any distance from us, We would never experience night and day, the millions of stars close around us would illuminate our planet around its entire sphere. We would never have discovered the vastness of the universe or the fact that it is expanding from a singular point in space and time. Einstein would never have cause to explore his theories of relativity. And, our sun and solar system would be subject to overwhelming gravitational forces from the millions of stars close around us. We would never have been able to send men to the moon. But above all, as scientists have pretty much determined, the environment inside a galactic spiral arm would be entirely hostile to life. So, why are we so fortunate to live on a planet in a relatively empty region of our galaxy.

Second, our sun is 400 times the size of our moon and 400 times farther away. The result is they appear exactly the same size. This precision in size and distance has provided us with the ability during a solar eclipse to study the stellar corona and solar flares which are critical to understanding the physics of stars. The fact that the moon's orbit is slightly elliptical resulting in a variation in its distance from us does not impede solar studies. Why are we so fortunate to have these doors open for us>

As professional astronomer once said, "The night speaks a language simple, august, and universal. Nature is pinnacled in the stars."

'Tis Nature's system of divinity
And every student of the night inspires.
"Tis elder scripture, writ by God's own hand:
Scripture authentic, uncorrupt by man.


They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
Psalm 107: 23-24

Thank you, deb. The Hubble Website is loaded with magnificence. If you get the chance, check it out, there is much there.

I remember when they first came out with the Hubble deep space pictures 20 or so years ago. I was riveted I will have to go take another gander at what's new

Blade, thanks from me. Many times I have stood on a mountain at night and looked at the stars. How can anyone not believe there is a GOD?

I used to go to church back when they taught about Jesus. I quit going because they became too commercialized. All they were worried about was how much money they could get!!


That has been a problem. It was almost a joke...the Building Funds!
