Does it really matter what I believe? Believing doesn't change the facts. I always did find it annoying that the prerequisit for escaping eternal damnation was believing in a bunch of very improbable fables though. Ya gotta figure, if there was a God (one that's supposed to be 'good'), why would he set it up that way? Would he really want his followers to be the stupid ones who were too chickenshit to think for themselves? After all he's the one who's got to hang around with them for eternity. Geez, after a few thousand years of hearing Pat Robertson and Jerry Faldwell whine I would think he would be ready for some more interesting company. I would be pulling Mark Twain and Voltaire out of Hell just for someone interesting to talk to....lol

But as far as 'belief' goes. I see no problem suspecting that there might possibly be some superior intelligence behind it all. But to buy into some mean old man with a long white beard on a throne someplace takes a twist of reason that most rational people would have a lot of trouble with unless you've been brainwashed since birth.

Oh, and 'Hi Walrus!'...choo choo ka choo!
