I had a friend of mine e mail me a few photos the other day. I'm sure you can find them on the net somewhere, as they were public photos. Anyway, they are flowers called Parrot Flowers, only found in Thailand. They are amazing, as they look like birds. I see things like that and I see a creator's hand in it.<br />Thanks though Matt. I do enjoy talking with you~Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06778221847847541523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4531984646002204364.post-44214856519896535782009-06-04T13:31:37.861-07:002009-06-04T13:31:37.861-07:00Oh, I'll be around!

Every single one of your ancestors survived long enough to pass on its genes. You can trace this lineage back for almost 3 Billion years to the dawn of Life itself!<br /><br />I don't know about you, but knowing that all life is related on some level, we're just different branches of the same tree, somehow make the world that bit more special.<br /><br />And there's nothing - nothing at all - to say that God wasn't behind the whole thing.<br /><br />But that's just me!<br /><br />Regards,ExPatMatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08666078524214384329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4531984646002204364.post-31318756871899486892009-06-02T19:13:42.674-07:002009-06-02T19:13:42.674-07:00Hi Matt- I can agree with you on God's genius ...Hi Matt- I can agree with you on God's genius ;-)<br />I really can't look at much and not see His hand in creation, and yes, it is beautiful!<br />I also can understand your wanting to understand other people's beliefs. I have studied other religions for the same reason.<br />And yes, there are still a lot of Christians who could do a better "job" at representing Him. I know I don't do the best job all the time either, but I'm a work in progress. <br />I know it's hard to explain a lot- but Matt, I do hope you keep coming back to read some more.

Thanks for your reply.
I'm not goin...Hey Carolyn,<br /><br />Thanks for your reply.<br /><br />I'm not going to press the issue, because I get the feeling that you are happy with the faith that you have and I don't want to do anything to disrespect that.<br /><br />I am merely trying to understand some things about the human experience that I don't understand; one of these things is religious belief.<br /><br />However, I assure you that if you ever decide to take a real leap of faith and trust that your salvation will be unaffected by accepting the reality of the world we live in, you will not be disappointed.<br /><br />This world is beautiful and if it is the work of an all-powerful Creator, then He really is a genius and we should all be thoroughly impressed by what He has accomplished - His publicists need to do a better job though, because they really don't do Him any favours...<br /><br />Take care,<br /><br />MattExPatMatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08666078524214384329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4531984646002204364.post-79092990032047472532009-05-31T13:35:00.584-07:002009-05-31T13:35:00.584-07:00Carolyn,

I've already got a few. I was wondering if you'd like to be an author. It would be great if you would. If you would like to.. I just need your email address so I can send you an invite to be an author.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />AJAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4531984646002204364.post-76974976857238070752009-05-29T20:00:59.949-07:002009-05-29T20:00:59.949-07:00Hi Matt, yes, sorry, I did read your comments on t...Hi Matt, yes, sorry, I did read your comments on the flood. Sorry, I got so busy I couldn't respond- I did consider your points, and they do make sense. I admit I am not much of an apologist sometimes as I really don't have the time or patience to keep up with all the new scientific things, but I do still try and learn what I can. I will admit there are many things that seem and are logical, and Biblically illogical- but I still stand on the Bible as the Word of God. The Words of Jesus show that the Bible is His Word, and that God's foolishness is still wiser than human wisdom. There are many things I don't understand, but I know that someday I will know the things I am meant to know. <br />I realize this may seem lame to some, but I don't apologize for my belief in God's Word. <br />Yes, there are many arguments which make sense, but in all what I have learned about Christ and other religions and philosophies- Christ is the only one which makes sense to me.<br /><br />Sorry Matt- I know you make valid points though, and I do appreciate your imput too. I'm glad you're still reading!<br /><br />Be well Matt!

The newest book I am now reading by the president of Moody Bible Institute talks about that in depth. I wish you had access to these great books that a friend is just dropping into my lap constantly! <br /> I hope you and your husband are feeling well... and never doubt that you have a good friend in Wisconsin who loves you as a Christian sister!<br /><br />God Bless your Efforts,<br />Tom Schuckman<br />tschuckman@aol.com<br />Jesus is Lord.Heli gunner Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04793588674806453096noreply@blogger.com
