"I like to write what I know, and right now, there are never definate endings. I also like to write what people can identify with. Relgious belief can define absolute evil in a world of gray."

Well, does that definition include me?

After all I sometimes speak like a militant atheist. I have no problems attacking peoples religion, if it seems to inspire them to attitudes and deeds I disapprove of (like claiming to be JUSTIFIED to define absolute evil in THIS world).

I have no problems giving credit to some religious people for their deeds either, but that remedies nothing in the eyes of many people who base their idea of good and evil on religion.
