Subject: As this is the Atheist forum...
... a quote from Gregory David Roberts' "The Mountain Shadow" might be interesting (Author of "Shantaram"):
And what if people don't believe in the Divine?'
'I tell them to fuck off. I can't waste my time with atheists. They don't have an intellectual elbow to lean on.'
'They don't?'
'Of course, not. The fact that light has both physical and metaphysical characteristics means that it is nonsense to refuse the metaphysical. And an absence of doubt is an intellectual flaw. Ask any scientist, or holy man. Doubt is the agnostics' parachute. That's why agnostics have a softer landing than atheists, when the Divine speaks to them.
