edited: rephased for clarity : @krazedkat.. In regards to your mario comment, you're supposing thatit's right to assume something could exist when evaluating it and describing it. You're supposing that whether or not we believe in Mario is a moot point just like if I said "whether we believe in santa is pointless if I ask you what color santa's suit is" . In another thread and other places I've tried this similar approach (ie. whether you think the soul is either eternal or finite) without believing it's real? I've met with overwhelming resistance to the creativity necessary to imagine something you don't believe in or postulate a description on something you don't undersand. Here you are doing the same thing(a an atheist) as I (as a theist) was. Not you specifically because I'm not sure if you answered or not, but a lot of atheists here don't think that's rational so for an atheist to ask a theist to do the same is a little hypocritical. Again, not you specifically just a comment.
Edit.. yes I did sorry your avatar confuses me and hope that's a little clearer.

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
