Oh yeah, and Gary and Ralphs posts are bunk. Especially gary's. Reality does not require imagination... Only religion does.

I'm not sure if you actually read my post or thought about it, but here are a couple of the most salient points:

4 .Just because we don't understand how God works doesn't mean he doesn't exist! It just means we aren't as smart as we think

5. The existence of God can never be proven, nor disproven, using logic. That's why it requires the courage to take a step of faith, despite all the unanswered questions.

As for reality requiring imagination, there are endless examples of how that is true, just pick any abstract subject.

For example, democracy is an abstract concept which becomes a reality because of imagination.

Clearly the guy who made that PowerPoint lacks the courage to imagine beyond his own puny 'college educated' little world!
