40. You ask what is to be gleaned from the questions of a Creationist?

It's natural to yearn for some ultimate meaning/answers to our plight.

Everyone who is introspective will gravitate towards these questions. There is in most people an inner void that requires, or pleads for, answers.

Some people hope they will find them in science; others in spiritual pursuits; others can fulfill these desires in other ways, through art or athletics or whatever.

People on all sides of this quest probably need to be respectful towards the beliefs of others.

My view is that people should believe what they believe, so long as those beliefs do not obstruct the rights or freedom of others who do not share those beliefs.
