considered that these Commandments covered everything one hundred percent. Know what I have thought sometimes? That those fans who will not admit a God because they declare there are too many illogical facts against His being, are admitting their minds are so finite as to be paralyzed at the thought of something beyond them. Instead of having a mind so wideawake in imagination and acceptance of things beyond their everyday life, they are terrified, and balk at and lock the doors on beliefs that apparently are beyond them. Just as the regular man on the street cannot think of space ships, and life on planets other than earth, so the non-believer cannot think of an after-life or a God that existed before everything else did. What is logic? Reason based on the correlation of known facts. What I am driving at is that the atheists, the non-believers, are such because they admit they haven't the imagination -- the ability to accept something that seems slightly beyond them -- or else they are so egotistical that they will not admit that there is a Being with a greater mind or abilities than they possess themselves. Ask your pure logician this: Granted, for the sake of argument for the moment, that there could not have been a God who created the universe out of NOTHING. Granted. But then if there was no Creator how did this universe come into being? Granted there has to be men on the assembly line, to make the cars. God is the maker, and we came off the assembly line. SHOW ME THE FACTORY WHERE THERE ARE NO WORKERS AND YET THE FINISHED PRODUCT ROLLS OFF THE LINES ALL BY ITSELF AND I'LL QUIT BELIEVING IN GOD! If there could not have been a God to create the universe out of NOTHING, then where did the universe come from? Was it always here? If it was always here then it had no beginning, and if it had no beginning then how comes it that it was always here? If God could not make the universe out of nothing, then how could the universe have come into being by itself out of nothing? I believe in God and an After Life, yet I do not believe it is a supernatural after life nor a superstition. I believe it is logical and will be fully understandable and acceptable as a scientific fact WHEN WE KNOW ALL THE FACTS AND HAVE ALL THE DATA. Maybe it is what science fiction fans try to say is the 4th dimension or some greater dimension. Yet when we do know it will all be so simple as to make us feel rather ashamed at our own stupidity.
