You're doing ok, Ken. I spend a lot of time making my way through all these gauntlets. These secularist people just don't get this supernatural stuff like a god who made the lion sending angels to shut the lion's mouths, people surviving in firey furnaces, Lazarus walking out of a grave, after having already having begun to stink, animals, by instinct heading out with one thing in mind -- to get in an ark, talking serpents, talking asses (hmm....... never mind, I won't say it}
, pitchers and trumpets for toppling gigantic walls, a kid's lunch to feed 8 or 10 thousand, sticks becoming snakes, etc, etc, etc. They have no concept of the existing spiritual invisible in the universe. Their minds are so narrow and temporal that they've got this proud egotistical idea that beings of higher intelligence than us just can't be in this great wonderful universe. They think earth, this itty bitty speck within the galaxy, Milkyway, one of the countless billions of galaxies contains all the answers as to intelligence and dimensions of awareness there is existing.
They do often scrape the bottom for refute stuff, but keep hacking away at their hard shells. There's some real gems within some of them once they get out, cut and polished. Such often become great in God's kingdom.
