Faith of the Miners

Not a debating thread-just want to comment how fantastic it is to see the Chilian Miners express their faith and thanks to God as they come up one by one out of the shaft. Some of them are wearing T shirts which state 'Thanks to God'. It's great to see such praise to God being aired so publicly :)

I was just thinking about this. I'm not religious, but I found it amazing that one of the miners said he had no doubt he would be rescued since he has such faith in God. It's very spiritual regardless of whether you have a religion or not - even though science and the work of people is to thank for the details, there is something miraculous about the whole thing. I have had tears in my eyes all day watching this- I pledge not to worry about the small things anymore!
