Your myths, his truths. So say "beliefs".

It isn't fake, it isn't code. It's accurate and nonjudgmental.

And does the native american relgious adherent know that the christian preacher doesn't believe his religion? As assuredly as the other way around.

But not every occasion is the place to have it out over which is the myth. Not every situation is for proselytizing, and not every person wants an earful from either the christian or the atheist. That's not disparaging so much as a frank recognition that everything important to you is not relevant or timely to everyone else.

Which, by the way, is a non-denominational, non-believing across the board feeling I have about all of the theological discussions in DU. All I want is to keep a forum of like minded polticals from being insulting or divisive or boring.
