My take on it is that I don't worry myself about the beliefs of others until they start getting preachy. Paladin hasn't gotten preachy so while I agree with Napoleon that Pal's belief is indeed irrational, I'm certianly not going to bug Pal about it; he's being decent and courteous and that's all I ask for from anyone in a discussion.
Put shortly, it's the old saw about religion being like a cock: keep it to yourself and don't shove it down my throat, we're cool.
