I was refering to the word not the color. light reflection could have been called fruit, then you would be calling it fruit now. Language was created to mean certain things so one person would know what the other was thinking.
If there is a god what language would you use to communicate with him, because god is not doing a very good job communicating in my language to me.
I knew, thus the "sorry" note. =))

It Is unexplainable so they say it has to be a supernatural hand, they don't know that for sure. Why is it so hard for the human to throw away thaughts of someone higher than we are. People have wanted to believe in UFO's, Gods, Devils anything to prove that we are not the most intelligent species. Not to say there might be other planets like this one that houses other intelligent humans.
AFIK, UFO's God's or Devils are not what they believe in.
What I said was not referring to those things, not in a religious way, but in my opinion more in terms of awe for the greatness of the universe / its mechanisms/ how or why things are the way they are. As far as feelings are concerned I would say it's kind of like a religious awakening, like when people think a miracle's happened to them, or like when you're standing in front of the Grand Canyon looking out into the vast openness that is the valley, or like when somebody stands on the beach and look out into the sea and go "damn!". Any of these things are awesome to experience, the outcome of these experiences are the same (for the person - in terms of feelings), but they're not the same. (in causes at least)
