[QUOTE="over9five, post: 763262, member: 1401"] [b]Re: United Way Intimidation[/b] Nope, I can't do that. Perhaps you could arrange a demonstration? Sorry, not at all. I agree that it is an emotional need. Old people, nearing death, wanting desperately to believe there's something after. If it gives them some sort of comfort, that's just great. Sometimes it just bugs me that an otherwise intelligent person could possibly believe in all that. I just never understood "why". Because you read a book, and believed magic happened 2000 years ago? Or was it because you were indoctrinated as a child, and had no choice BUT to believe it? Now you spend every Sunday in the church/temple/mosque listening to the magic words waiting for...what? Well, when it happens, give me a call. I'll believe it when I see it. I apologize to anyone I've offended with my beliefs (or lack thereof!) I'm out. [/QUOTE]
