Forums can be daunting. And we can't avoid it but life doesn't always stand up to thinking.

Of course we can't help but relate God to us humans. It's call anthropomorphism. But to think the God of the universe wants to marry us little teeny specks strikes my funny bone. But then I/we should be grateful that God even loves the lowest form of animal on the earth. It is a very romantic notion ... that makes my pea-pickin' heart go pitter-patter.

We'll enjoy you while you remain around ... and will miss you when you're gone SC. Thanks for your thoughts.
