Politically charged Quote of the Day (and ... The Meaning of Life)

[Alex]

Yeah, I'm not an absolutist in the sense that I will readily acknowledge that "god" (as generally defined, though when you push people will define god in some really weird ways) could exist. There is just no rational reason to think so.

But I can understand the impulse in others to choose the other way even if it has no attraction for me.

Scrooge McSam, that quote well expresses an issue I run into in talking about this with people. How do they decide with forms of baseless magical thinking they will buy into.
