The problem with religion is that many people feel the need to share or even force their particular religions on others.Mild examples are the blue laws, which fortunately are going the way of the dodo.The extreme of this is beheading those who won't kowtow to their particular gods.

So, you are claiming that it's a 50/50 proposition?After thousands to tens of thousands of years of shamans of all stripes making claim after claim about the existence and desires of their particular deities, all the while providing no evidence that stands up to scrutiny, you still claim it is a 50/50 proposition?That's pretty silly, considering how rational you are in other areas.What's the fancy Latin term in logic for "argument based on wishful thinking?"
