re: Holy F#$%
Even though I fight with you regularly about the way you approach particular religions, that was satisfying to read. I agree with you basically, my agnosticism based on my understanding of the impossibility of proving a negative.
As for not reading any religious writings, well, I find them to be informative concerning human psychology. Some are philosophically or ethically rich. Some are whopping good stories. And besides, I don't ban books. It's against my religion.
