She didn't really have an answer to me.
Since then it's one less thing I need to try and wrap my head around as to me there has been no hard proof of anything. I live my life believing in things that have been proven and are fact. Like C6 says...see you in hell.
Then again, I couldn't care what anyone's beliefs are as long as they don't preach it to me or others.

And yet, there are those who would call you an asshole for what you just said... or accuse you of trying to get them to stop believing.
