At what point does faith become insanity?

[emjay]

There was a brief time when I was a True Believer. I consider it a time of insanity.

In my own case I look back on it as a time of stubborn delusion. I still remember the frustrated eye-rolls of atheist acquaintances at school, one in particular, as whatever they said washed right over me and didn't make a dent. I sometimes wish to this day that I could meet that guy again and say 'you were right, and I was an idiot'.
