It;s okay Skybird,
I'm very liberal in writing that and I knew I took considerable risk.
There's a big difference between just believing and knowing what you believe in and believed knowledge.

You see I know what death is but the thing is even if I told anyone I know what death is they would not accept it readily since there is no way for them to verify that at least not by themselves. Actually there's a way but heck if people couldn't accept what is written by holy men some hundreds years ago that's bound into a book called the bible why would they listen to me but I would still tell them NOT because I want to convince anyone but because I know that that is the truth.

The same thing with me knowing that God exists. I would still tell anyone literally anyone that I know God exists and took considerable risk in saying that NOT because I want people to believe anything but because that is the truth. And that I don't need people to believe me I just need people to read what I share liberally.


Of course it goes without saying I don't reveal everything that I know of. Those things that verified for me that what I know is right and correct. Because I don't think people are even more willing to hear that or could accept that but mostly because those are for me to know primarily and not for anyone else to believe. I'm even liberal enough to actually write this.

In the end it's not my wish to offend or to argue with anyone but I'm hoping that it could serve at least as a memory of that perspective that couldn't fit in into the concept of the reader lives and perhaps that would be enough a reminder somewhat somewhere sometime in the future when something big enough oddities came or a crisis came into their life and knock the balance of their current belief system. Even if these words are forgotten in the next 5 minutes because I know it would be somewhere in the subconsciousness, forgotten but not entirely lost and I do this not because I'm convicted by my beliefs but because I'm convicted by my knowing(ledge)
