I find strange and really beautiful symbols in my breakfast cereal every morning and they have never once worried me. I would really like to add a nice comment or two occasionally but It doesn't seems like it matters much in these threads. I'm not really that interested in changing someone's mind but it would please me so much if folks with deeply held religious beliefs would challenge themselves to a debate on the cause of their beliefs. The more that religious fanaticism grows in the US culture, the dumber we get. Believing in uber terrestrial beings with no greater proof than; mom said it's true, it says so in the bible, or because my friends believe would cause me to be profoundly embarrassed.
I feel like my presence here is more like trolling than contributing so I'm going to look for a less serious area where intentionally ridiculous or silly postings are encouraged. Maybe something with flowers and unicorns.
I'm also discouraged by seemingly random erasing of postings that I've written. Undoubtedly there is logic behind these actions but I'm at a lose to grok it.
Live long and prosper
