Well, since I believe in a God, I'm quite serious. Now, that might not be true for you and certain beliefs that you have. But that's fine, I never said each person wasn't entitled to their own opinion. I was merely stating mine.
And I'm not ashamed to admit my beliefs. And as an American, I'm proud that I see eye-to-eye on this matter with our Founding Fathers -- and the elegant words of Thomas Jefferson -- who on July 4, 1776, signed the Declaration of Independence to create America with these resounding words...
When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness...
"Endowed by their Creator (that's Creator with a capital "C") with certain unalienable rights."
That sure sounds like a Heaven sent right to me!
