Good comment Gene Johnson! My own perturbation on the topic has been with me most of my life. I have to admit that when thinking of my own family; I can admit that it would be great if somehow I can have reunion with those who've passed away, yet I know that it is unlikely as a possibility. 

The conclusion I came to years ago was that contrary to Christian doctrine, man actually created a god in his own wishful and often arrogant imaginary image, and not the other way around.  

Spirtual feelings are a way of describing emotional feelings that tie us to our most ancient ancestors, who, like us today, gazed at the volume of sky and wondered, how and why? A fact of life, is that some questions may never be answered. Still, some claim they know the answer, and the conflicts that result, arises over and over.
