| We Humans accept that Spiritual beings are invisible to us, but i am sure that to them their body's are quite visible and real. If i can accept that i can accept that there is a physical place that Spiritual being dwell that i can not see. Boom you said some thing that got my imagination running....... |

| If i take the U.B. at heart, than i have to accept the possibility that we (Humans) can, and are capable of screwing every thing up here on Earth.

Repeating your self doesn't change the discussion or move it forward, it just keep it going around in circles....if you can not address the logic of the discussion than there is no discussion.
Plz step out side your fundamentalism to add to this discussion or lets just drop it. |

| Hello Yaakov I have been away in school lately so i am attempting to catch up here. Are you willing to accept that all Faiths have their books of Spiritual history that they unconditionally believe to be unapproachable? And when we attempt to compare then all together we find some similarity's, in t... |
