Subject: RE: BS: Militant atheism has become a religion p
The other day I had just opened this thread, in order to relish the usual mayhem that tends to occur on these sorts of threads, when there came a knock on the door. I answered said door and was confronted by two ladies representing the Jehovah's Witnesses - a Christian cult of which I know little and don't wish to know more. The next day, whilst walking through my local town centre, I was accosted by an earnest young American gentleman, from the State of Utah, and representing yet another Christian cult called - yes, you've guessed it - the Mormons. Both sets of cultists urged me to read the Bible - whilst the latter also wished me to read another work of fiction called 'The Book of Mormon'.

Is this all just a coincidence or is somebody "up there" trying to tell me something? Perhaps I would benefit from reading the Bible?

On the other hand, the laws of probability say that coincidences are actually quite common because random events often lead to the formation of clusters. Still, God, if you're reading this, please forgive my impertinence ... but then you did create the laws of probability - along with everything else. Are you just trying to confuse me?
