RE: My Great Awakening
I have to say that I tiptoe lightly around discussions like this, but especially here, because I consider Gene to be a dear, close friend. If every Christian I ever encountered had been like Gene, who knows how my life would have turned out. That said, I come closer to John's point of view, although I think I take it one step further. I've never made a secret of the fact that I'm an agnostic who leans heavily toward atheism. One of the main reasons (other than how an omniscient, all-powerful God could either be unable or uninterested in stopping suffering) are the contradictions evident in the Bible. I think writers like Bart Ehrman have opened several people's eyes as to the stories we've been told about how the Bible was created.

I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
