brad.

I didn't mean that they need satisfaction in watching us at all.  I just 
thought that God might give them a window sometimes... not all the time mind 
you... but sometimes just to see glimpses of us and our lives.  Now, mind 
you... i know that they will have much more better things to occupy there 
time with... like praising god etc so it's not like they have to do this for 
them.

Again, it was just a question and i didn't mean to offend anyone or anything 
like that.
