Subject: RE: BS: Are Atheists really Atheists or......
Well no Jack, I'm interested in your view as an atheist.

I more or less agree with what Little Hawk has written.....I've seen old men inspired to dance with joy.....the tears of a grandmother when holding her first grandchild.
Folks singing to an audiance when they have never performed before and being so possesed of the "spirit" that they seemed to float in the air.
When playing football as a young man, being lifted by the "spirit" to do great things.

How do we explain these feelings, they are certainly not of the intellect. Surely there is also a spiritual dimension to our lives?
