Then she would realise that a final irrational leap of faith is necessary when reason fails to lead the believer to the required conclusion. Faith is the final retreat, where those nasty logicians can’t touch you. When she says “…no one seems to accuse atheist parents of brainwashing their children into rejecting religion”, I hear echos of the Creationist argument that belief in Darwinian evolution is as much a faith position as Christians’ belief in God. Had Ms Urwin come across Occam’s Razor she would realize that atheism is the intellectually neutral position, and requires no brainwashing.John Rickwoodnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3278613909498569992.post-43189288141087736382010-12-15T02:05:01.363+00:002010-12-15T02:05:01.363+00:00Well, at least she believes in donkeys.
