I don't argue for or against a god. I just don't consider it.
Hey Tim, I have a question. It's a serious one, so don't take it the
wrong way. How do you not consider God? I mean, how do you not think
about it? I find this whole atheism thing intriguing. Apparently, this
mailing list has at least a few. So I'm wondering, what's your meaning?
I mean, why do you read and look at art and have kids and buy houses and
write poetry? Aren't you looking for something? Or do you just think
whatever you're looking for exists inside you and your frame of
reference. Just wondering...
