Well, I think that was a lovely response...Dear Suz,<br />Well, I think that was a lovely response. I am not religious at all, but I do have a Bible and I remember a lot of it. <br /><br />I always think of the parable of the talents--if God gave you a brain, you're supposed to use it.<br /><br />Philosophers centuries ago believed that we were supposed to use our brains to the utmost, in the glory of God, when trying to divine spiritual nature and the ways of God. We're not supposed to sit around waiting for someone to package it for us while we nod our heads faster than the person next to us in the pew. We're supposed to turn it over and argue it in our minds and with each other. It's part of the process.<br /><br />So, bravo! <br />Ann T.Ann T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11128699035211561119noreply@blogger.com
