Wesley--I don't think your question is anything like mine. In the case of red or blue bicycles, which ever choice you make, you end up with a bicycle. In the scenario I spelled out, you end up with life, or you end up with death. That might mean the same thing to you, if you believed in an afterlife, but...

          Further, I don't think I'm sitting on the fence. What I am saying--in response to the discussion about finding common ground and being tolerant--is, I'm not sure there is any common ground. It looks to me like, humanity is either going to come to the point where they will actually deal with reality, or they won't. If, in the end, they don't, I don't think mankind will survive as a species.

          You can call me a bigot, but I'm certainly not a Baptist.
