It seems to me that the secret of life rests not within one omnipotent being, but in tiny particles. Scientists recently found a meteorite in Australia which contained some of the building blocks of our DNA. That, and the minerals and ice found in comets, seems to indicate that everything needed to create life exists everywhere in space. The idea that everything in the universe is owned and controlled by one god, and that it only created life on one planet, out of the billions and trillions that are out there, just doesn't seem realistic to me. Supernatural things happen, this I know because I've experienced a few, so I'm not going to make the statement "There is no God". I will go as far as to say that I have never seen any real evidence to support the existence of any god.
It is difficult to answer questions like "Why do we have feelings like love, joy, or pain?" or "What is the purpose of life?" but I am content to throw out a "Damn if I know". I'm here, and I make the best of it. I love trees, ponds, puppies, horses, blue skies, thunderstorms...all of the natural things of the world. I don't know why they make me feel the way they do, but it's enough for me to know that they do.
As to why we have sickness, well, bacteria and viruses are just forms of life that are trying to survive, which is basically what life does. I've heard people say that they lost their faith in God because a loved one died and they didn't understand how the god could make them suffer so. How lame! If living things (people) didn't die, the world would be a very crowded place, wouldn't it? Death is just a part of life...be glad it's the last part! (unless you're a vampire)
With that said, I'm sure I have some hatemail from the religions forums. Dr. James Robertson is gonna go stamp out homosexuality! Praise Gaw-aw-aw-duh! Perhaps religion exists for my amusement.
