I guess I put faith in our resident theists that they have some ounce of rational thought to their beliefs - that they aren't just nilly willy believing just 'cause - and I was hoping to understand these thought processes behind their view of a particular fragment of reality. But it seems like I'll just have to accept disappointment.
And they have the guts to carry on preaching, as if they are perfectly rational in all they believe
