I don't know that there is or there isn't.

But I do know there is too much order, too much intelligence, too much beauty... for there not to be some force at work. And that is good enough for me.

And remember, some days we are the 'doubting Thomas' of the bible; he is there to let us know it is okay to have those times of doubt. Sometimes my times of doubt come when there is so much pain evident in the world. Or when someone states they escaped death or disaster because God was looking out for him/her; does that mean God was not looking out for the less fortunate in that circumstance? I don't know. I can't know. And I can't spend my life trying to prove somethng I can't prove (or disprove).

So some days I have faith and some days I don't. That is just the way it goes for me. For those that can sustain hope and faith, I am happy for them!
