My argument for atheism +

Well, to bolster/defend some aspects of Belaqua, I would hazard a guess EgoDeath that;

I would place some of Bel's more idiosyncratic traits to a form of 'Language barrier'.

Now Bel has explained that they are a native English speaker. (What flavour of English I do not know)

They have also explained their place of current residence is the 'Land of the rising Sun' and that they have mastered the language of this exotic shore.

Now, being confluent in both dialects has produced/given rise to Belaqua's unique turns of phrasing and word usage, I would again hazard to guess.

Having worked with folks from many disparate parts of the world (Listening to a Native of Nigeria conversing with former resident of the great subcontinent of India as they worked at transferring concepts between each other via their only shared means of English I found wonderous as it gave me, a somewhat native English speaker, an insight into both their way of thinking and a 'Second hand' veiw of how others find my language to 'Be'.)

I've also worked with some one who's native languge was from the more Northern climes of Africa plus a little dash of the Cyrillic.  Who had then travelled to the shores of the US of A wherein they learnt to master and tame English.

In quite a few instances the nuances in the differances between their idioms and mine became enough that substantial loss of understanding occurred and required much further expansion and explanation to overcome the difficulties.

Of course I'd be more than happy to be further educated in regards to such matters.

Cheers.

Yeah, those are interesting thoughts. I think it's just more so, as Gae pointed out, that Bel truly believes that he knows more than we do, and loves to take every chance he can to correct one of us atheists about how wrong we are in concerns to religion, more specifically Christianity.

The issue is, Bel's view of Christianity seems to be almost completely disconnected from the real world. His view that most Christians are these seasoned, sophisticated, philosophical thinkers is just rubbish and nothing more.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
