If so, how and why?

Thanks! Smile

I voted other because I'm not sure how much a person has to believe in a god in order to be a theist.  If being a theist basically means you don't believe in any doctrine and you're not sure about a god but if you had to choose you believe in one then that doesn't seem irrational to me.

If a person for no reason at all believes in god or believes because the bible or the quran says so then I would view that person as being less rational than myself.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
