I think there havebeen several threads here on religion.
Personally, I find it disappointing when drive by posters put up something like, "good luck with your fantasy sky God".
It shows about as much intelligence as, "he said it, I believe it, that settles it"
It happens here about as often as any place. I don't know why some atheists have a jones for this kind of thing.
Thoughtful debate is always welcome.
I was very pleased to hear Bill Maher on Fresh Air a couple of days ago. He has a new movie out on how certain religious aspects are hurting the world. Expecting him to give out the usual flying spaghetti monster stuff, he said his belief is, "I don't know".
