      Great note. I am reminded why I have respect and even envy for genuine Christian belief.

      Education is extremely important.

        Very nice note. I’d hope to have similar strength and humor and honesty if put in a similar situation.

          I understand that completely. I often wish I had a stronger faith. I do not disavow the spiritual, nor assert that we are all there is. I just find it hard to adhere to what someone else tells me it is.

                      God, the comments are awful. We've really become the ugly Americans.

                        Maybe the ugly comments are from bots controlled by stinkin' foreigners?
