I'm with Will Fly here: I too live from day to day, and try to live as much as possible by the idea of "do as you would be done by". Friends, family and enjoying life are very important to me. I try and help people if they need it.

I too rejected religion from an early age, but then spent a number of years looking into Christianity, Buddhism, Islam and other religions and philosophies....not sure whether I was looking for something to believe in or just confirming to myself (within the balance of probabilities) that my rejection of it was reasonable.

I used to have great fun arguing with creationists on "talk.origins" but realised after the same fallacies had been knocked down dozens or hundreds of times that they would continue to spout stuff that had been shown to be rubbish for years, sometimes decades, after having been shown that it was wrong. So I stopped.
