> [@Fry](#): > > They’re just debating what my beliefs should be named, when the very act of naming “my beliefs” bastardizes the key “my” part. Cute little simpletons. I see what you did there. Seriously though, even though you joke about it, it’s true. One persons beliefs are just the opinion of said person about how they perceive the world/universe to work. No matter how similar they are to someone elses beliefs, it’s very difficult to compare a persons beliefs to some standard, and doing so takes the individuality out of said beliefs.

Agnostic, Monogomous, and am conservative-libertarian in the current climate but I understand that liberalism and even socialism are possible if everything is right. Honestly, given circumstances any form of government can be the right one, even a dictatorship. ---

so i sent this to the president, VP and a colleague this weekend… all of whom are big christians… like grace before dinner and incorporating jesus and god into speeches in front of 500 important people christians… I advised them to have a good weekend depsite the bad news that my not beleiving in god suggests that i am smarter than the lot of them they retorted a couple times this weekend (VP, colleague) and this morning the three of them sat me down in the presidents office… they brought the bible out and advised that i read it certain specific passages, there was some quoting going down… then we debated on our collective existence for a while and we broke for other meetings. Twas all in good fun though… i’ll be sending them some Steven Hawking talks now. ---

steven hawkings uses imaginary numbers to try to prove the multiverse theory. it takes a lot more faith to believe him than the fundamentals of christianity.
