Recently I watched a video in in which Carl Sagan was asked if he believed in God. I think asking an astronomer if they believe in God is a bit like asking an astronaut if they believe in thrust. His reply was that it really depended on what the asker meant by God. , I thought that was an interesting reply, and it made me think of an analogy , that the word God, is a bit like - x - in algebra. If you go along with the idea that all power comes from God, and that power really means the capacity to do work ... then you see that the x in algebra, really doesn't mean much until you actually find out what the x is in that context. You have to do the work to find that.
