In response - some commentary... from Sharon:
Gerald MacKenzie - not likely to happen ... those of us who identify as 'no faith' are very different than your usual brand of faith followers - we do not feel the need to impose our views and beliefs on other people. We do sometimes feel 'imposed upon' when others preach to us about what we 'should' think or believe ... but otherwise we just quietly go about our business and leave others to believe whatever they choose. Personally, I think that everything would be much more peaceful if EVERYONE just kept their religious views to themselves. The subject of religion in general is one of those 'tinder boxes' which can cause extensive and sometimes nasty disputes among followers of different belief systems - each one thinks their side is 'right', and that everyone else is wrong. And they will not change their stance, regardless of how hard someone else tries to convince them they're wrong. Religion has been the cause of far too many wars over the millennia - with each side absolutely convinced that 'god is on their side'. They can't all be right
