    • OH MY GOD HE'S RIGHT!

      I'll be frank with you, Kuci. You're the most brilliant tactical genius in the fleet.

        Nah. We just don't need any self-delusion in order to be happy.

        I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned

            The irony is absolutely, well, I have no words to express it.

              • Sincere hypocrisy is ironic.

                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                        You don't need to maintain a nonbelief. It's just there. That's why it is the default.

                        You are perfectly right that beliefs require maintaining, but that has nothing to do with my point.

                        • The crux for me is that as a species, we evolved with religon helping us through most of that process. Look around the world today, see all the remarkable(and mostly religious) things that our anscestors have left behind them. A huge effort of work for something an atheist will not be able to comprehend.

                          The belief that man has had in these religions over the millenia has led us to where we are today. The non believer is a very recent part of the human condition, and for many people it will take more time before we can be comfortable with the notion.

                          we are just evolved monkeys, with our animalism just a few scrapes from the surface. Religion could be said to be a big part of what has made us human?

                            Good point that - what did atheists ever build? Marxism. Stalinism. Nazism. Fascism.
