Either I trust that He knew what He was doing - or I reject Him for offending my 21st century sensibilities and conscience. I understand and appreciate the fact that Migisi, Oliver, and others here have made their choice. I hope you can understand and respect that I've made mine.

Well, I certainly do respect one's right to believe what they wish. However, ~understanding~ their reasoning behind their choice is another matter.
.
What I do understand is the dictionary definition of 'faith': a belief that doesn't rest on logical proof or material evidence. So, how can anyone expect that rational deductions and material proofs would be acknowledged, considered, or accepted by the faithful.
.
I also understand how difficult it is for people of faith to reject the fantasies they've created and guarded all or most of their lives. Their fantasies have become reality for them.
