  Thanks Raz - ok here is a basic logical leap I'm failing to make and I can't find a good expalnation of it yet.

  I am happy with the concept of the Higgs Field but is the field expressed by the Higgs Bosun or is the Higgs Bosun an evidence of the field? If the field is caused by the Higgs bosun and all matter is equally affected then Higgs bosuns must be all over the place which seems at odds with the idea that they decay so quickly and can only be 'seen' in a collision scenario. How can a rapidly decaying particle be responsible for a stable field? However, if the Higgs bosun is simply the result of exciting the underlying field such that it momentarily changes state (to a particle) and then decays away then I can almost square that.

  The Mormon church is having a crisis. More and more are leaving, as the church ups it's media presence so those who leave are matching it ( the ' I am a Mormon' adverts have been met with 'I am an ex-Mormon' videos.) The institutional and conservative nature of the church means it is cracking like a warming ice sheet with sections calving off while the overall depth of belief is thinned. The recent onslaught of intelligent, witty atheism has caught the church in a broadside as more intelligent , educated born in members are open to progressive and well presented knowledge. The LDS church will collapse far quicker than the JW one which is simply ,slowly strangling itself in pointlessness. IMO.

  How do I hear/feel God?

  this is a serious question.. i know people that hear/feel god (and see postings about people's experiences), but i have not experienced this.

  i have never heard anything audibly (or otherwise) nor "felt" anything inwardly.. i've prayed, read, quieted my thoughts, etc...but still nothing..

  It is a shame you wish to leave based upon situations which could have been less contentious had they been presented otherwise. I take no shred of happiness to see you leave unchanged. A less overt ministry and a kinder approach could have been the win win situation here. The discussions over disbelief and non-belief will obviously continue with or without you because they are important and emotive issues that dig deep into who we are and what our worldview will be. You are no martyr and you have not been driven out and I suspect, after a period of reflection and ego healing you will return - this will be an interesting event and will be within your gift to put aside the you who threatens to call down evil and to replace it with the you who visits apostofests and laughs, jokes and shares an authentic friendship sans agenda. That AG will receive a much wider appreciation methinks.

  to the household of god, israel, and those who go with... may you all have peace!

  to try and perhaps help "calm" some of the rhetoric and propaganda on the board lately regarding what i've posted as to the apperance of spirit being, the following are links to threads/posts that contain some information regarding their appearance and nature.

  for those who haven't read of such before, they are not "men", as in human... nor do they appear as human unless they put on the appearance of an "able-bodied" (vs. disabled) man.

  No no - you were right - I was posting someone obviously struggling with reality . I wasn't actually trying to be supportive.
