Well now that's interesting, I do not wish to change the subject here because the young person that ask the original questions has a very good point, however I do find it interesting that you can google and find out a little bit about what I am, however, unless you have actually lived it, you still know very little about it, but I'll give you credit for trying..

But God did help Jesus. The lesson learned was that in having forsaken Jesus at the cross he has learned that his own decisions have consequences and that one should choose and trust friends carefully.

Not sure I get the intermediare part but God is present in all men (and women). Jesus understood that at a very early age.

That's a very interesting analogy, it sounds like what you're saying is that your Christian God made a mistake in forsaking his son and let him be crucified.

What's your point? Am I somehow not worthy to post here since I haven't walked in your shoes?
