now i know that the article was a bit unsophisticated and tended to dwell on some rather petty points of logic, but that is precisely the point. religious belief depends entirely on a total denial of logic, at least a severe warping of any logic i am acquainted with. the very fact that the fate of one's immortal soul hangs on the ability to suspend disbelief seems to fly in the face of man's greatest gift, the ability to reason. i don't know that i'd call it mudslinging or even a real attempt to change anyone's mind, it seems more a simple statement and denial of one of the many mythologies that are tearing humanity apart.


i think i'll take a trip to ihop.
