I'm not disagreeing with that fact. But my point is not bullshit. You're
ignoring what I'm saying and going after a straw man. If you don't want
to think about this, though, that's up to you. You've already indicated
that you don't want to use rational thought here, and want to use a
faith-based mindset instead. It's a shame, but it's your decision.
