JF - i think u overstepped a bit there. Declaring belief in God is not as condescending as you make it out to be. However, I have been in situations where I could understand where your statement originates from (such as when someone says to me, it's ok that you don't believe in God, He loves you anyways).

This is problem I have found is that while I agree with your reasoning, I honestly believe we as humans are typically happier believing in some form of higher power (ironically, likely due to the evolution of our social structure). In this way, I think religion is truly the opiate of the masses... and many would be miserable without their daily dose of faith.
