"I'm not afraid of heights for one simple reason." The young man said. Confused they all looked, "what is not to fear?" One reporter asked, as the young man relentlessly gave his opinion. "Hanging from a cable, here today if I fall it means that god thinks it is my time to die. And the higher I hang, the more time I will have to pray on my way down. "So you think that, if god wants you to die, he will break the cable?" a small boy yelled out. Almost out of ear shot. "If god thinks I should die, then yes, he will break the cable." He said. Again try to prove a point in the madness. "Well, I think you're stupid. If you hang off a 400 foot building, I think you very well should die." A boy said. "And why is that? You are just a boy, what do you know about life, love, religion? The young boy smiled and said, "I am only 12. But here are my reasons for why I think what you are doing, is completely stupid and is waisting everyones time. 1. "I may be a young boy, but I apparently know more about living than someone hanging off a building." 2. "You are right, I know nothing about love. But someone loves me, and I love someone. So Maybe I still know a little bit more than you." 3. "And Finlay, I have not found a religion suits what I believe yet. But I'm sure what ever I choose, It will not be with your god." The boy stood just a little taller after saying that. "So why wouldn't you choose my god?" The man said confused The boy smiled and said " Because anything I choose, I don't want my "god" to tell me to hang off a building for him to decide if I should live or die." With that statement, the space race began.
