As I said a couple of times now, the relationship is a mystery to me, but I nevertheless believe there is a bond there that cannot be broken. If I appear irrational to you, I'm afraid that cannot be helped. It appears that is the natural occurrence to difference to being a believer as opposed to an atheist.

Surely you can see how completely unsatisfying, unconvincing, and hollow that answer is? "I don't know any of the details, but I believe X, and that's the end of it."? Would you find that okay if we answered like that?
