"For God so loved the world that HE GAVE His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." - John 3:16

Giving thanks to God for what He has given is what this day (and everyday) is all about whether you acknowledge the giver or just the gift; either way you are blessed to be alive and breathing. Being thankful for what we have is so much better than the alternative. And for those who are not too proud to accept this free gift of Salvation that is available to all through our Lord and Savior, Jesus of Nazareth, we have the everlasting part to enjoy from now until this life comes to a close...Thanks be to God!

Too Proud? How about informed and thinking enough to realize its folklore.

10 to the 21 is one estimate of the number of stars in the universe. That is more then there are grains of sand on earth. If each star had just one planet (ours has 8 or so) it would mean a lot of planets. 1000000000000000000000 is a really big number. There is likely life on some fraction of those. Probably more then one.

Be thankful, relax and enjoy your self. Stop attaching strings to everything. Can't it all just be?
