Thanks so much! I was frankly shocked to get a post like that here, where everyone generally seems quite tolerant, supportive and friendly. I knew there would be some of differing belief systems or non-belief, that's why I included "good thoughts". I certainly do appreciate your prayers!
Ahh you're right. While I would have no problem expressing such views in person I should be more careful about how I express myself online. Christianity has not been very tolerant of other's views in the past but I realize I should not stoop to such 14th century mentalities and try to uphold myself like some of my more modern christian friends. Please forgive my lapse of reason.
