Most of the
time I spend time trying to understand why an otherwise
intelligent person could come to such unsupported conclusions about
some things. It's as if their logical thinking breaks down, and is
no longer around when faith steps into the room.
That's exactly how I feel about "God". I cannot grasp why otherwise
intelligent, rational people -- especially techies -- suspend their
common sense to believe in an invisible man in the sky.
I welcome a debate with anyone here who claims that believing in
god(s) is somehow "different".
