First Sentence

"Why are we here? What is life all about? Is there a God? What happens when you die? Have you ever asked yourselves these questions or others along the same line?About 25 years ago, I watched a mini series on television called Jesus of Nazareth and it got me thinking. I was brought up in a church going family and knew a lot of the stories from the Bible, but when I saw the events dramatized, as they were in this series, it had an effect on me. I started thinking again about God and religion. I decided to spend some time, trying to get a firmer understanding of what it was all about. Was I asking myself some of the questions above? Not really. I never really thought that there were answers to these questions that could be readily understood and if there were I would never find them. All I wanted to achieve, at that time, was to obtain a better understanding of the Christian religious system as taught in our society. I was hoping to make some sense out of it so I could feel that I knew what was going on."
