lx, maybe I should've made myself a little more clear. If you "believe just in case it's true" and this leads to some other sort of belief that is different than if you spend your whole life not really believing but just pretending they do "just in case" and what I was referring to was the type of person who fell into the latter category.

Is it just me or has this post gone completely off-topic? Could the mods maybe split this discussion or move it/lock it?

my statement was in view of LOGIC, not as a basis for a particular faith.

Possibly in bad taste, but nothing topic seems more suitable for the below commentary then an argument about religion.

Maintain the distinction between Religion and Faith, the first is mortal institution, the second something so basic and transcendent it is an inarguable characteristic of humanity.

Ok, this thread has wandered way off topic, and has gone a bit too flamey. There are several other threads debating religion, and all do it better than this one.

Locked.
