I think the meme seemed to be talking about faith/belief, and that the very concept of belief (not just religious belief) essentially opposed science.
When I read the first short paragraph, I quickly thought the meme was idiotic, because there can also be scientific belief, which is separate from religious belief.
But then, the last paragraph is the paragraph that grabbed me. I was a Christian, and I appreciated science as one of God's best gift to man.
I was slowly viewing the world differently now, and not only am I considering atheism, but I also thinking about staying away from the very concept of belief too.
This has been a year now in the making, and I am comfortable enough to talk about this with others online.
My boyfriend is somewhat proud of me too.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
