Well normally that would be a turn on for me, since I'd try to sway you to the darkside. We have cookies and better parties.

Since you seem to be moving there on your own it would be less of a turn on

This is a hard conversation for me to partake in, as I've been an atheist for 30 years and I'm not even 40 yet. At an intellectual level I understand peoples need for a God and I even have theories for it on an evolutionary level, but at a gut level I just don't understand how grown adults can think they have an invisible judge in the sky, whos actions seem arbitrary, reads their minds, expects complete obedience, and expects us to not use logic and reason but instead just trust what we are told is his word by other men.

If there is a God out there, I don't think we quite 'get it' and I'm not too worried about meeting it.
