It really upsets me that people attach the love of God with religion. Religion is wrought by man and there for flawed. I believe in a benevolent god that loves me. I say 'that' because I believe that God is not a man or a woman, but a god. When we die, we experience something completely different than we do here.

"The more you look like you do not need money, the more people try to shove it down your throat" Something like that. I heard it on 60 Minuets from Mark Dryer.

Hand starting a prop plane may be possible.
