Riddle of steel? Actually, my riddle is of iron and forms part of my wood burning stove. I wonder what this thread will end up debating, once we all forget the original post? Oh, silly me. Faith versus ridicule. T'was ever thus. Mind you, I do like the idea that if you believe in your imaginary friend, you shouldn't become a politician. Snag is, would I be barred for believing in my football team? Would we all be barred for believing musical talent and Simon Cowell acolytes are mutually exclusive? You see, religion is just one belief system. Its followers however use it as a moral code. Fair enough. But far too many believe you and I should too. And that just wont do.
