Paul Janse said: > Are there any atheists among you who are bothered by "all this talk about > Jesus" in Faz? I was never *bothered* by it, but I think it does make the story less interesting for me than it might have been. I'm all for talking about spirituality and wisdom and all that but when a specific, organized religion (which I have already examined and rejected for my own life) comes into it, it strikes me as less touching than if they Franny and Zooey were talking about something I could really relate to and maybe agree with. Isn't it possible to find wisdom and love and beuaty and meaning from somewhere other than Jesus, Buddha, etc.? Dave
