While I totally respect and understand your father's point of view, I'm of the mind that there is too much perfection in this world for the existence of what can only be deemed as miraculous, to have been something haphazard and unplanned. Of all the arguments for a higher power, nothing sways me to the degree of belief in its existence as this rationale does. I guess that by the same token, I also belief in the afterlife, a place for which this, our earthly life, is just an antechamber and practice. I can only hope like you that it is full of goodness and everything dear. What could be more perfect than that? Lovely post Kelcey. Touching, funny and thoughtful. As always, a Kelcey way of wrapping things up.

I'm with your Dad. ) I'm not sure why people think that not believing in a higher power automatically makes your life hopeless and/or depressing. This 'earthly life' is amazing and fulfilling and I know what a genetic lottery I won to even *exist.* I am loved by so many and I love them back. And, that is enough for this girl.

What a sweet, lovely post. I know… I know there's a God, and when I explain it all, I look hopelessly stupid, so I try not say much to get the atheist all the ammunition they need.

Interesting though, I have read that most med students go into the field as atheist. After a few years as a doctor, they become believers.
