The most I can do is plant some seeds and water the ground. Whether anything grows, depends on the soil. I really should not have huge expectations, but the domino effect is bigger than one thinks.

Atheism and religion are not simply two sides of the same coin that you can connect with a bridge.

You can achieve a state where atheist have more tolerance for religious people and vise verse

You will never evoke understanding of these two subjects from both sides. It is impossible, for the simple a reason. Either side has to submit to discarding fundamental ideas of life before they can truly see another point of view (submition of core ideas don’t go easy) Humans just don’t change very quickly about core issue

A Forest has different shapes, sizes and type of trees. Put together they do make a forest of trees, but then you missed the point

You are taking on a instrumental task Hugo, that will break or make you. Maybe you should look at simultaneous multiple approaches to your problem(to many damn trees in the forest you know)

Commenters that assume I’m stupid, might be doing themselves a disfavour… I’d suggest they keep open the possibility that I might actually mean what I say and have a perfectly rational and sensible reason for saying it. Even if it seems a little mad.

What is the difference between slightly mad (as in “mad scientist” mad), and deluded? I suspect the difference is subtle but significant…

(For example: my impression, is that bluegrey is underestimating me. Of course, that doesn’t necessarily mean he is underestimating me.)

Yes, wait for tomorrow’s post. This one is addressed to a certain group of people, and includes references to things in those conversations.

I do suspect these two posts were rather too ranty/rambling. (At least, Steve thought so.) I think tomorrow’s post is more standalone and independent of previous conversations and context. I’m hoping it clears up a lot of things. (It cleared up things for myself. -> I confuse myself as well… btw. )

Given some more time and context, I’m hoping you will have some idea of what I’m on about. Or trying to be on about. At that point, please fire away with any criticism you might have. I want to hear it. (Just keep in mind I am self-aware, and usually consciously and intentionally write the things that come across as crazy. I think, anyway.)

I’ve done my best with your last two posts (including this one), but I’m none the wiser.

Screwed? Nah, Normal I would say!
