I'm not sure I understand. I'm assuming that when you speak of a personal experience you are suggesting that at some point in time in God felt it necessary to intervene in your life and help you along the way. Would this be a correct statement?

I'll tell you what I know. There is no God. I've seen things in my lifetime that no one should ever have to see. I spent 14 months in the desert of Iraq watching people die while people were trying to kill me. I spent time thinking that I will never make it back home to see my wife and kid. I spent time wondering why good men, my friends, had to die.

I remember going into Fallujah at the end of 2004 and seeing the streets lined with charred bodies. I remember thinking that red sand would be beautiful were it not stained red with blood. I remember pulling communications equipment out of an ambulance after it had been struck by an IED. I never knew that the human body held so much blood. Most of all, I remember the screams of the dying, praying for God to help them. It was obvious to me that their prayers had fallen on deaf ears.

With all this God felt in was worth his time to help you out with whatever your problem was at the time. I'm sorry, I don't mean to offend, but whatever problem you had going on in your life was nothing compared to the pain that these men and their families have been through.

Where was God in all of this?

I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.[/
