Whew! I thought it was just me with my mind numbing depression not following it. You're a life saver, Kichi.



Rest assured. Seems like we're all having a problem understanding the OP.

Maybe MysticKnight can rephrase the OP so we can discuss his arguments?

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
