Earth to Columcille. Are you there?
That "created being at birth" you celebrate might, not long ago, have died before it learned to walk if we left it up to your god. Instead the death my hope cannot escape happens 70, 80 years later.
You have a misty, magical hope for life after death. My hope lies in tangible solutions to real world problems.
I wouldn't trade my values, my morality for yours EVER.
I will try in some small way to love my neighbor right here, right now while the Pope makes ridiculous claims that injure or kill, and if I wake up again after I'm dead to find myself face to face with one of the gods, I may fare better than the Pope and his "sheep" who contributed to suffering and death as a means to "lift mankind above his moral circumstances".
