nice
regarding "a higher power, but i prefer to refer to it as nature and natural laws" is totally cool. for a higher power did create existence. it had to. the higher power is the force that made this.
now it's up to a person to call that higher power what they want.
hawkings recently make the analogy that our reality/universe is a bubble that expanded from a pot of boiling water and did not burst, but kept expanding. he said that was pure chance. so, the higher power is the hot water the bubble came from. hot water is a thing. however, because we are human, we see the hot water as a human (human god) as well, for we cannot understand the hot waters true nature.
