I thought the thing about religion was believing in really, really improbable things. I thought it was the whole laws-of-nature-defying that made deities so special, and the ability of believers to believe in the vastly unlikely that was going to earn them all the spiffy afterlife rewards. If Christians are going to start arguing that God’s probable, then what’s supposed to be so amazing about God?
PS There probably isn’t now stop worrying etc etc.
I probably should get of to work now but just popped by to say I loved their ads.

I think you are right, Religions are Faiths. Faith that God etc exist, faith in transubtantiation. You have to have faith as they can’t be proven real.
So maybe atheism is also a faith as you God can’t be proved not to exist.
Douglas adams was in fact a genius- ‘proof denies faith and without faith I am nothing’.
