Onion Slices

First off, a lovely quote:

“I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.”

Historian Henry Roberts (1901-1971)

I got a rather big kick out of that quote. It reminds me of this picture that I’ve seen around the Internet :

Now, just to be square, I’m not trying to CONVINCE anyone of anything, I just try to keep in mind that there are a lot of alternate viewpoints out there. On a related note, one of the things I’ve always loved about my upbrining was that we (my brother and sister and I) were always given a choice about what to believe. That is something that I really cherish and I am very grateful to my parents for.

Thanks, Mom!
