Lek, as an example, knows that he doesn't talk to god. He knows that god doesn't talk to him. Not in english, not at all. In fact, he personally knows that despite, in spite, or regardless of his beliefs, god is frustratingly silent. This silence and ambiguity positively compels us.
All of us.
Well, I have had "dark nights of the soul" and I have considered atheism. Honestly, I would have to forcefully cast off what I believe to be true in order to become one. I also see atheism as too limiting. I prefer to be open to all possibilities, which has allowed me to experience God more fully.
