You can always masturbate to your beliefs. The syndrome has been posted elsewhere on this board and has been scientifically explored and an aberration of the mind (thanks Neuroscience)

Please click on the links and explore just WHAT your mind gets up to...all sans a fuzzy imaginary friend.

Can I ask you what beliefs you are imposing on me? If you Knew anything about absurdism you might understand I see rationalists as having an untenable belief system let alone theists.
If you expect me to have to explain myself to you I am an artist, and I wish to understand what is going on in the mind of the observer, Now what system is it you believe in that wishes to confine my actions? You are nearer to being part of the theist brethren than you think, OK pal.
