    Can we conclude that many atheists are good neighbors?

    Sometimes better than believers, that's for sure.

    Which is exactly my point when I say God works through atheism. Have you ever seen 30 days by Morgan Spurlock? He did an atheist/christian episode that was profound.

    You know of a place safer than Earth for us?

    No but you know that isn't the point. I think this thread has hit the buffers of special pleading and obfuscation.

    For us it's the perceivable Force of Love and most likely more complicated than I even know or can know. Love has been demonstrated by history and in scanarios playing out as we speak to be capable of solving any problem created by conscious thought or free will.

    Logically, it's always possible that your positions are evoking obfuscation, but no need to go there right?

    God is ineffable. It is easier to say what God is not than to say what God is.

    However, it might be easiest to describe it as the source of all other things.

    Love is having faith in that being selfless will "work out" in the end even if it means pain, death or both. The African Dog Packs love each other as they give something of themselves to help out an injured pack mate.
