Thanks!

Many believers in God believe one or more aspects and not all. It’s a tough pill to swallow for a secular mankind right now that believes we control our own destinies. yet religionists believe God has a Plan above and beyond what man can conceive for himself, as do I. That gives me incredible hope and trust we won’t destroy ourselves or large population swaths before realizing that God’s ways are indeed the best of human ways and means to do more than survive, in other words, we can thrive, together not apart, with the right plans and right attitudes….
Thanks for your comments

Why? I think like many atheist scientists today he was saddened by so many wars and so much human suffering – even microbes the source of deadly diseases were discovered only in the late 19th century. Einstein did not reflect on the past history when only 1000 years ago the Viking still lived by raids and plunder. He neither thought on the future when we are promised in the Writings that peace and justice will be the norm. There must be a wisdom humans are so shortsighted an flawed in understanding this mind-blowing creation and its Creator?!
