Oh and make sure you keep telling me how awesome I am. I'm a bit of an egotistical tyrant. And I hope you were born to parents who chose the right belief system or your done before you start." It's insanity. Read something like "Conversations With God". I don't know if it's real. It certainly seems like it would be hard to make up, but either way, it makes a lot more sense. And there's plenty more besides those books.
God sent his Son to save us from our sins.
There is also a moral sense of what is right that is imbedded in a person, and that's from God.
