Ditto. If God is so obviously non-existent, why make such a fuss? To a real atheist, being a militant atheist would be like defining your life in terms of one's non-belief in the Easter Bunny.

Of course the real answer is that deep down, everybody knows (or at least suspects) that God exists. Le coeur á ses raisons que la raison ne connait point — Pascal

Strong agreement. And I may steal that turn of phrase...

Strong disagreement. I no more suspect that God exists than I do that the Easter Bunny actually exists. Either could be true, but so far I have seen about as much evidence for the one as the other--which is asymptotically close to no evidence at all.
