Wow Steve...
I think you just topped George Carlin for summing up my views on religion better than I could myself (or "the way I wish I would have thought to sum it up first cause it's right on"
)
I'm VERY tempted to post this as a myspace bulletin but am not sure I want to deal with the firestorm it's likely to cause. Of course, most people who know me already also know that even the word "religion", and especially "Christianity", just make my blood boil like almost nothing else on earth, so maybe it wouldn't be such a stretch...
