Well welcome to our crazy world then.

In our crazy world, atheism is not a conviction, and is a term used by people with faith to single out those who don't have faith.

My dog actually has reasoned his position on faith, otherwise he wouldn't keep trying to lick the balls he doesn't have.

This thread could last as long as any other religion, seeing how it passes the test of hosting one. Granted we haven't got around to starting any wars yet, but take my advice and don't try spilling the gnome's pint.

Problem is Stringsinger, you work on the basis that anybody who isn't superstitious makes a stance on superstition by default. That is not the case. Our village, not that small, has about 1500 people. I have been informed that the church gets a congregation of about 20. By your definition, the rest have thought about it and came up with reasons to dismiss it? By that standard, the owners of the Chinese takeaway should be able to survey those who don't buy from them to find out why they thought about chicken chow mein before rejecting the idea.
