- Would someone out there (preferably a "believer") please explain
- to me why it really MATTERS if God exists at all, given the fact
- that he sure as HELL doesn't show any predilection for intervening
- in every day life? In other words, I haven't seen any unbelievers
- struck down by lightning bolts lately, nor any dens of "iniquity"
- razed to the ground. Or is this just a test of faith? Funny how
- they didn't have those in the old days.
-
- I think what's really necessary is a grip on reality; once you have
- that you really don't need to believe in God.

- Steve.
