Similarly if God exists solely in the
>human mind, he is real.

Hi Mredd,

I have not talk to you in a while. I hope all is well. All is OK here. I have been working
on this Modern Science stuff as you have noticed. It has been interesting to me. My
internet server seems to be having problems. This is the first I have been able to get on in
about 2 days. The snows have arrived and it has been like a picture. Snow all over the
conifers sitting on top of the rocks in the middle of the river--then it rains and washes it
all away.

I have said it before if God works for you and your intent is good then go for it. It is a
personal choice and I respect that.

How do you figure what real is? I can mentally envision a great meal but yet I can stave to
death. Or I envision a great meal and do what it take to go get one--a real one-- and enjoy
it. Are you saying you can do the same with God? But yet we place rules on this faith. I
can test the quality of a meal by taste, sight, and smell. But yet there is no way to test a
god for the rules say that would be tempting God-- for obvious reasons---you will not get
results. We have all heard that God works in mysterious ways beyond our under
standing---in other words he defies any testing so what is god a afraid of? There is one
place that we all know nothing about; that is life after death---is it not strange that this is
the place that god dwells or so we are told. The one place we can not test. I�m such a
skeptic.
