Atheists and religious fundamentalists are both curious people to contemplate.   Sort of a case  "he saith---she saith"---so the case can never be concluded.

Anyway, I thought I'd post the joke about the new planned residential community, in these days of "political correctness".  A nice intersection was reserved for places of worship.  One on corner would be the Catholic church, on another a Protestant church, on another a shul (synagogue), and the remaining corner would remain empty so the local atheists could gather there and laugh, laugh, laugh . . . . .

LOL that's funny, Bonnie.

I've known a lot of Athiests who aren't so much against the idea of God or a god-like being, so much as they are against organized religion.
