My son's school raised over a million pennies for
rebuilding in a town devastated by Katrina. He says it filled 47 of those large water cooler bottles.

Sorry
I meant 50 trillion cells, which are composed of molecules, which are composed of atoms. I wonder how many atoms there are in the human body? JasonScyte

50 trillion atoms?
Not only are we responsible for taking care of them, they are responsible for taking care of us; so it is important that we think about them and talk to them positively and tell them what it is we want and need so they can provide for us. JasonScyte

No!
Those trillions of little cells are taking care of us! Born and dying all the time - and we don't even notice!
Thank heavens they don't get mad at us...or maybe they do...

Mysteria that is an awesome example. Such analogies
make me so much more aware of the presence of a real God, singular God as creator. Nothing so amazing as the human being can come from a bubble in a pond, an accident nor merely some "intelligent designer". It is God.
