re: #91 Lynn B.

For the most part, it’s people who have no faith who tend to think of God as an explanation for observed (or unobserved) phenomena. People who do have faith (or at least respect those who do) generally tend to have a much more complex view of the matter.

I don’t know, I’d say the ancient Greeks and Norsemen had quite a strong faith, but that didn’t stop them from attributing thunder and lightning to the gods.

If you’re only talking about modern religions … then what you’re telling me is that you think Evangelists all have very little faith. Let’s just say I’m rather skeptical of that claim.
