A few quick comments. Golfingnut, this thread is going to get bitter and unfriendly. I am a bit disappointed given the fact that I tried to helpfully contribute and participate with others in at least one of your earlier threads. I hope you do consider the advice and counsel others gave you and you are not just moving on to other 'touchy' topics. These are meant as friendly comments.
To Joerocker, and to PennBF, please also read and consider "I Don't Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist," by Norman L. Geisler and Frank Turek. Among other things, it quite handily deals with Truth, and which religion might stand the test of honest reasoning from evidence and which might not. But more to the point in this thread, it displays for all to see the absolute illogic and arrogant prejudice of the New Atheists and their sheep like followers. When you mention Michael Schermer, and one of his books, please let readers know he is virulently anti-religion. Puts things in perspective for inquiring minds.
Pax.
