Spock, what are you trying to discover? What questions are you looking to have answered? What about religion so provoked you to question as you do? Honestly it's quite admirable.

My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true.
