No Smoke and Mirrors

Saw this scary cartoon where this guy says and then our branch of theology came along and got it all figured out and then another dude says Jesus must be so thankful for us.
John Donne writes about the power of deep real love being less cataclysmic than infatuation, the earth's revolution vs an earthquake. Which one's bigger? Which one makes more noise?
The believers I'm most impacted by are humble, w/ no chip on the shoulder, not necessarily striking me as overly-intellectual (though sometimes they are, but they're never in your face about it) but living loving, joy-filled, pure, and gentle lives. They don't thank God for themselves, but others are truly thankful for them.
