    I still do not know what can be done to eliminate endless futile conflicts between theists and atheists. But comments collected at several websites prompted me to compose a short on-line paper at:
    Not sure what "wars" or conflicts there are between theists and atheists- can you give some examples? I'd say there are mainly wars between groups of peoples and that sometimes religion is used as a tool to further one group's agenda over another's...

    As for the logic on your on-line paper- I had some trouble following it. Sounded like there were several false choices, illogical statements, and assumptions stated as facts. I hate to get involved in a discussion on objectivity and universal truth since I don't know anyone who sees things from a different perspective than I do (Earth and human eyes). Mathematicians have supposedly proven many dimensions- but I can only understand and sense three that I'm aware of. How can I thus make any conclusions about objectivity and universal truth??

    I've felt God's presence since I was a kid, this was before going to Sunday School or church. It seemed so integral to existence that I never really thought about it. What became frustrating in later years is the internal debate about what exactly constituted this 'presence'; a spiritual awareness, a mental wish construct, a form of illness...what? The evidence, if you will, always seems so subtle that it could very well be nothing or anything. Puzzling.

    The Adversary, on the other hand, revealed itself early...you could actually feel it thick in the air. I don't really have the words to describe it, but it doesn't seem too concerned with names.
