I agree.

Organized religion across all spectrums is obviously a creation of man . . . . . so to believe in its mysticism requires an elevated level of "faith" to swallow the obvious hooey.

As I get nearer my death bed someday though, no doubt I'll give "faith" a lot more consideration, unlike Christopher Hitchens is doing right now.

Hey, you gotta believe in something. Right now I believe the government prints the money therefore even if the money is worthless the government will still be able to print me enough to pay me if I own one of their bonds.

And I believe I'll walk over to 7-11 and get a muffin and a diet coke right now.
