Faith can get neither to truth nor to justice
The idea that one can be certain, without proof, that God exists, if applied to the practical matter of administering justice would certainly have dire consequences. Imagine a juror that by the same standard of thinking decides the guilt or innocence of an accused. If evidence and logic were disregarded in the belief in God, it can also follow that they would be equally unnecessary in the prosecution of a juridical case.
Since we know that justice can only be served if there is no compromise between reason and faith, we are likely to trust the person who consistently follows reason. For if we believed that it were possible to pursue the truth by mixing reason with the sentiment of faith and cast aside the unyielding evidence of unquestionable facts, both justice and truth would become a mere matter of opinion.

If you are awesome and you are just an infinitesimal spark of His splendor then just imagine how awesome God is . We have all the qualities of God but just in minute quantity. For more info. go to harekrishnatemple.c Read Bhagavad Gita as it is translated with commentaries by Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada- tells all the Magnificent qualities of God.

Some people ask, "If God is X, then why is X?" or "If God isn't X, then why isn't X?" They ask every day, but really, God is far beyond anything we can ever imagine. God is unknowable, His ways are not our ways, neither is His "language" our language. This is why we have His Messengers. They speak "our" language, so they can relate to us to reveal God's Revelations. We need these Messengers, because without them, we can never know about God.

Because they are ignorant. Not at all in a disrespectful way, but in the true meaning of the word. By the way...you are VERY, VERY attractive. That lovely golden hair takes my breath away.

You asked it once. I remember mentioning to you that another David made the same comment in Psalm 139.

Because many people in society today have very low self-esteem and need to say that they are great to feel good about themselves.
