You seem to have taken my statement of A to mean B
I'm hardly referring to the people believing in religion (although i do find those who do to be silly in their stance ), but rather to the religious material itself Hence how nonsense can have that effect... and the rest of the time it just confuses me However, when it comes to people believing in religion (IE your list), i do find them silly (though not idiotic) for their belief in religions
That otherwise smart people were/are silly enough to believe in religion doesn't speak for their intelligence... only that they believe something without proof or with a great deal of personal evidence It does not mean that their beliefs should even be truly considered by anyone else... because then we would have people accepting what lunatics have faith in as true (which already seems to happen to an extent).

Righto, it will soon join my pile of other unread books waiting until the day i finally can't get on the internet, my electronics, be with my friends, or find anything else in the world to do ^_^
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
