    Well apparently Jihading doesn't leave a lot of time for more...ehem...social experiences and the holy warriors wouldn't want to be, you know, embarrased in their...shall we say, lack of knowledge?

    Could only be one thing. Pope has defended Darwin, saying creationism is a silly excess of fundamentalism.

    Well he could have done an Altar-boy , thats slightly worse than defending Darwin .

    If there is a god, it is so infinately superior and more complex than us that it is as likely to care about what we do as a bunch of helium atoms bouncing off each other in a remote red nebular in the southern end of galaxy C3182.

    Religion and belief is just romantic mood music for life. Choose your own records and dance however you like.

    I don't think that there is much that i could say that would just instantly convert you, you have to want to be converted, you can't be forced in to any religion.

    The best argument for any religion is seeing how the followers live, whether they are kind hearted helpful and happy etc. unfortunately many people have stereotypical views of religion.

    If you are seroiusly interested in takeing up christianity i would suggest visiting you local church or just talking with any christians you might know about it.

    If you can find one, try out an alpha course.

    I can tell you that it has offered me and many of the christians I know an awful lot. A good church is kinda like an extended family they help and support you.

    Crazy rabit is right, CS lewis's books are very good, Even the narnia books have a lot of religion in them.
