I think one of the biggest reasons people have difficulty believing in God is because they don't understand Him.  You often hear doubting comments like, 'If there is a God then why this and why that and how could He allow...?' Perhaps if people were to invest true, sincere effort getting to know Him they'd discover a mindful Father molding his children for a higher purpose.  Because, like it or not, believe it or not, agree with Him or not, He is God. ↗

O reason, reason, abstract phantom of the waking state, I had already expelled you from my dreams, now I have reached a point where those dreams are about to become fused with apparent realities: now there is only room here for myself. ↗

We don't have sources who are dissidents on other sources. Should they come forward, that would be a tricky situation for us. But we're presumably acting in such a way that people feel morally compelled to continue our mission, not to screw it up. ↗
