Hmmmmm... how about in a straight jacket?
I think I need to label you as an enigma as well! These are a pair of shoes I've owned my whole life--I'm comfortable and find happiness in them. But you're actually purchasing them new! What a concept!"
Seriously, you sound like an awfully special guy. Faith is something that is so deeply personal that I have never found it necessary to question others on their religious and spiritual values.
We all are heading to the same place--if we all travel the same route, it's going to be perpetual rush hour. I have no doubt that I'll be seeing you all on the other side, regardless of our personal methods of transport.
And don't you wonder why--over centuries--we have never learned the virtue of tolerance with our fellow humans?
Back to the drawing board!
Have a good weekend!
