So why can't we see him with our eyes? Never could figure out why an all powerful being that can create everything we see cannot do something as simple as show himself to us. I have always failed at faith so it would be useful for those of us that aren't quite as good at it as others. because if you could see Him with your eyes you would be completely evaporated, His brilliance is such , it is only by faith you will see Him Ah! Really ? Geeze, Now I understand why all those early religions worshiped the Sun God!
Thanks, virgo! My eyes have been opened!
OOPS! I'd better close them quick! Don't want to end up blind!

And it's something that so called orthodox Christians sometimes do to spouses who declare they are atheists. If this video is supposed to be an example of cult like behavior then they too are guilty of this behavior with atheist spouses. If I should remarry and have more children and she suddenly declares herself atheist she'll have a war on her hands. "To the rest I say (I, not the Lord) that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he should not divorce her. If any woman has a husband who is an unbeliever, and he consents to live with her, she should not divorce him. For the unbelieving husband is made holy because of his wife, and the unbelieving wife is made holy because of her husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy. But if the unbelieving partner separates, let it be so. In such cases the brother or sister is not enslaved. God has called you to peace. For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?" (1 Cor 7:12-16)

Dmmichgood Quote - "To assume that “God wants it to be that way” is circular reasoning. In fact, it’s not even circular reasoning. It’s doublespeak."
Not sure what you are talking about, Dmmichgood.

I don't know anything about Lee (haven't been around as long as most of you), but his comment saddens me. I hope he'll rethink this.

I concur. But one would hope that he would tell any female up front that this is his point of view.
