• First Question: Too many Kids die today for there to be an all powerful almighty god; I’m not buying this freewill stuff. If there is a devil and a god, the devil wins every time a child is killed. I will never see it any other way. And if the devil wins, that means that he (God) is not almighty.

Tells a story about a spacecraft covering the sky just like in independence day… he says it flew over his base in Germany in the 60s and it completely covered the sky. He can tell you almost all major memory’s in his life from the time he was 3. he is crazy smart if he says he saw a craft cover the sky it happened! I believe we are not alone.
