And I find what people believe about god to be pretty uninteresting (it is pretty much all equally nonsensical to me) but why they believe it and how they differentiate what they consider nonsense from what they don't consider nonsense that I find interesting.
Though I have tried to avoid actually challenging anybody's beliefs or forcing them to defend them. I try to keep things in terms of exploring the specifics of what they believe. But I may have failed at that (I have certainly challenged how certain words are used but then I think any discussion at all, on any topic, is futile if there isn't some agreement on what the words used mean).
