That my circumstances of my own existence could have very well landed me in another culture or another time, and that we are all alike. Thoughts on leading a good life were idealistic, but I was just floating through whatever the circumstances my corner of the world just happened to experience. If you didn't have such thoughts, I must deduce the worst. I am sorry. It is not my duty to clean the mirror of your soul, if you don't accept God, it is not my duty to save you. His imprint is seen in his creation. Call it an abduction, call it an epiphany, call it what you want... You have enough before you, without me even going to read the existence of God p***ages of Aquinas in his Summa Theologica or Summa Contra Gentiles, or St. Anslem's works, or even of St. Bonaventura. You can ask what I believe and why I believe it, but I cannot do the work of the Holy Spirit in cooperation with your own soul.
