In Memorial of 47
Just lookin' for evidence of a father in the history of the son of man, and he's still looking like a fatherless little bastard to this average Joe.
I can't begin to explain the immaculate conception, if that's what you're referring to.
If/how the angel that was sent delivered the seed or if God just made the miracle happen within Mary's body in some sort of asexual way.
If you're sincere in your search I hope you find your answer.
No, Man... It has nothing to do with conception, immaculate or otherwise. It has to do with mankind giving up on the idea of there being some sort of supernatural parent figure out there judging us and humans accepting the responsibility for our own history.
It's the only way to put it behind us.[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_km0u64OLng"][/ame]
I read an article, some time back that addressed that missing "parent figure".
That one of the differences between atheists and believers in a father/God can be tied to the home that they were raised in.
Those that weren't reared in a loving and compassionate home have a harder time grasping the concept of that loving Father.
The opposite being that people raised in a more nurturing environment more easily accept Him.
Before anyone decides to start attacking me, I'm not saying that this applies to anyone particular.
Just relaying info.
( I tried searching for the article, to no avail, so apologies if I didn't convey the message clearly enough and in a way that may be taken as abrasive. I promise it was not my intent)
