I think you express yourself very well and personally, I have never experienced you as being "too harsh". But then again, I happen to be very opinionated and can be quite "harsh" at times myself! Maybe we are two peas in a pod? LOL!! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

You can see it in there eyes. There are many people who have had near death experiences and have witnessed that they live beyond the grave! I may have said this on another thread at one time or another, but it is worth repeating. C.S. Lewis believed that our pets (not all animals in general) may well be resurrected to be with us in the new earth. He reasoned that if this happened it would be due to our love for them. Somehow, the bond of love that exist between humans and their pets elevate the pets to a status above the animal kingdom at large. Our love "redeems" them as Christ love redeems us. It's a lovely thought isn't it? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
