Spud, this applies to you in the way gloves apply to hands: “Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too”? (Douglas Addams), oh yes there's another one of his that would also apply: 'I find the whole business of religion profoundly interesting. But it does mystify me that otherwise intelligent people take it seriously.'
I really wonder why the average religioso is so blinded by their religo stuff that they can't see the rather obvious signs of 'man made' bronze age nonsense, from the days when they didn't even know it was the Earth orbiting the Sun not the other way around.
Talking snakes, coming back from the dead, one way vaginas, another one riding a horse up to who knows where when he died, walking on water, a few fish feeding five thousand people? come on and that's only a few of the superstitional magical mythological stories we're supposed to take in as wrote.
It's about time we should be addressing these believers in a professional way, with something like: 'Oh yes, don't worry Mr or Mrs Whoever come in, have a lie down, we'll have a chat about it, now what were you saying'?
But no, it's now the 21st century and they're still here?
ippy.
