Ahhh but your all missing the point, I can see how some things imply that I'm saying those things but, let me explain.
When I said psychical proof I wasn't referring to my dreams, I might as well be insulting everyone's intellect by trying to pull that one off.
Not at all my friends, I was simply referring to the magazine that I was handed the next day, I mean really what are the odds considering I had never been to that church before.
If you could guys, read my post again it'll make more sense that way.
But a friend of mine who is a scientist who I told this story too said that scientifically he could not logically explain my story through scientific reasoning.
In no way am I trying to prove the existence of god, I just wanted to share a little mystery of life story, for there is no real way of knowing for sure if what happened was brought about by co-incidence or whether it really was because I had that dream, I will never know but that's what makes it so special :)

Is a fault of our mind nothing else thats why you cant lies your beliefs on others

Again you need to understand my point, I am not trying to prove god. I am saying I had contact with him (this is my belief), I understand that in these matters correlation does not affect causation. What I am merely telling is a story and people are beginning to take the fun out of it, just see it for the mystery that it is rather than picking apart what you think I am claiming to say.

Another thing I want to point out is I am not Christian, I am Buddhist.
However I am in a way a panthiest in the sense that I beleive every religion and faith is the right one, every path is the right one.
Actually i'll let this guy explain it, says it so much better than I lol

The term for your belief isn't pantheism (that just means that divinity is everywhere), it is Omnism or Omnitheism (if you have soft polytheistic views, it is Universalism). I thought pan=all meant believing in the capability of all religions too, but that is not the case.

Oh okay my mistake, I actually am not sure what the word should have been but Omniest would describe it too.

It's interesting that your dad was not mad at you for betraying the church.

Different life situations I'm afraid Josh, I fortunately never had this experience (I was raised by my grandparent rather than my parent's, if I had of been raised by them they defiantly would have had a problem with it), I do feel very strongly about this kind of thing that occurs between parent's and their children I think it's wrong to shun your son or daughter based on a change of faith.
