@gstepic, Gary, science cannot prove or disprove the existence of God, but it still is important because the Creation of God cannot contradict its Creator. Some people like Dawkins say it does.

And who are you? To remove and to give and to plant?
Maybe it’s something and maybe it’s nothing
Or maybe it’s something and nothing

For Jewish people arguing is important! They preserve their disputes in the Talmud. They have a saying, “Get two Jews together and you’ll have three different opinions.” One of my Jewish co-workers said that this is why they often go into Law–because they like to argue. We should view Jesus and the Pharisees in a new light.

I would have a hard time enjoying his company. I hate that kind of stuff. Maybe “Mangia! Mangia!” Is an Italian grandmother’s method of preserving her sanity.
