since someone brought up CI in this thread in regard to Bibical, I thought I wouid point out that God either does not create person to be deaf to fit in his plan or allow human to create a CI to fit in his plan.. So therefore God isn't real to me. I am secular Humanist and my dad is a episcopalian priest, retired from Diocese of Georgia as a Rector of one church in Moultrie, Ga and now working as priest in F.W. Texas. He once confirmed that the bible are not 100% truth. They has holes. anyway let me point to my post in other thread;

If God was real then we would be stuck in Middle Ages environment meaning no cares no computers!
I once told someone if they are against technology that helps deaf succeed far better like newer HA or newer CI then they should abandon all technology that enabled to communicate electronically.
God isn't real to me. I don't believe in Heaven or Hell because there is no such thing like that. There is no evidences! We have Hubble Telecsope out int he space to scope the universe for Heaven nothing!
We have drilled the surface, no hell. We just know that there is lava flowing underneath, because this earth has a molten rocks nothing more. I think God and Jesus is just mythical just like Greek has made up lots of mythical figure like Zeus, Apollo etc etc..
Do you know what "viral email or viral video" means? ok if one send you a viral email with false story but you thought it was real. you forward to your friends and it spread like wildfire or like dandelions So that's the case back in before jesus was born. one will start a story and it spread like wildfire by word of mouth. so they made things and build temples and such after mythical figure they thought was real.
That's how the bible was born.. all are written by different author not one. That's why we see lots of contradictions in it!

so my dad is right, it has holes... **SHRUG**
The Burden of religions IS OFF my shoulders! I do not have to fear about it. I don't think about it. My mind is free!
