"I have seen no evidence, and I ain't lookin, either!"

That's it in a nutshell, Amos. ;-) That sums up the pigheaded attitude embraced by religious fanatics, anti-religious fanatics, professional skeptics, and stiff-necked, stubborn, prejudiced people the world over.

Every belief system contains some such people, sadly, and they make life unpleasant for the rest of us.
