Good for you.

The most wise position I have seen so far.

The real issue is not whether God exists or not. The real issue is what
people who believe in God do with their faith in God.

Do they kill people with their faith? Do they take care of sick people with
their faith?

Do they try to make laws to control what people think? Do they try to make
laws to prevent people from trying to control what people think?

God might be a reasoning tool Christians use when they are confronted with
irrational reality.

The proof of the pudding is in the taste.

Are Christians behaving much worse than atheists?
