You are, no doubt, aware that Socrates himself argued for the existence of the gods in Apology, I assume, Dyshade? Yes? No? Some inherent difference between assuming a secular belief can be held true versus believing an account such as the tale of Genesis or David to be true, I suppose. No matter.
Do me a favor, Dyshade. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath. Spend fifteen seconds considering the idea that the other side could be correct. Let me know where it gets you. When people talk of the freedom of writing, speaking or thinking I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists; but I hope it will exist. But it must be hundreds of years after you and I shall write and speak no more.
