I stare at those 3D images but never see anything. They don't work for everyone. Anyway, that has nothing to do with it.

If you asked me to prove that I loved my son I'd show you that I'd give my life for him and I (as all parents do) already sacrifice many things in life to better his, even though I regret none of it and it's barely considered a "sacrifice" because of it.

I have nothing against those who practice their faith and even preach it openly as long as it's not forcefully in any way. (You know, the ones who yell stuff about going to hell if you're not a Christian and all that.) I don't get offended when my parents request I go to church with them or ask about praying on my own because that's just them being interested in my life and hoping I'll follow the same religion as them. There are many parts of the bible I can't swallow and others I find intriguing (Noah's Ark, the Holy Grail, Jesus in general for example) and while I do not know it like many do, I feel I know it pretty well in a general sense.

Some people get angry when Christians profess things about God and some Christians get just as angry when others deny His existence. It's just that sometimes it's a bigger issue than it should be when it comes to other people. Like it was said before, it's not much different being angry about another person's choice in vanilla ice cream when you prefer chocolate. No offense intended.
