"Stu, what you say is true if you speak only of absolutists, those who see only one possible answer to each question."

I agree with you about absolutists and the lack of nuance in many arguments on Mudcat is but I'm not sure I understand you fully on the subject of believing in God: are you saying you could be a Catholic and not actually believe in the existence of God? I'm not talking about the various ways in which people within the church perceive God personally, but the actual, fundamental existence of God.


" but atheists here too"

Except you don't know who is an atheist here and who isn't, as some of us don't discuss our spiritual lives.
