Re: So far so good, but spread the word to all EvC'ers
When should the final submission be? Should place a date on it? Feedback please.
Give them a while. It's rather off-putting asking people about their basic beliefs.

Re: So far so good, but spread the word to all EvC'ers
I'm surprised this is all that has voted so far
You didn't include an option of: none of your business. I suspect that is one reason why people might be staying away from the thread. You're not getting an accounting of the beliefs present here, just an accounting of those willing to declare their beliefs.
Edited by DrJones*, : added a sentence

Plus, as pointed out in Message 14...

By the way, "christian" wasn't an option in the poll.

You get nothing. Just somebody who can't make up their mind.
Then I will burn the camp--but without belief in anything but fire.
Agnostic is the only honest reply. All the other options are guesswork and flavors.

Granted.
Thank you. Now in my view, which admittedly is tentative, nihilism makes the most sense. It is very reasonable. I'm sure you wouldn't disagree with that.

It is quite reasonable to surrender in any direction. The suspension of belief is painful.
