<I'm beginning to feel as though I've overstayed my welcome here on this thread. I have
enjoyed reading it since I joined SI, and wouldn't change it one bit. There are some very
bright (and funny) posters whom I enjoy reading, and I don't want to bog the thread
down with laborious discussions of existential questions.>

Rick, I hope you still feel comfortable posting here. I think that when people present their points of view, even bogging the thread down in laborious discussions of existential questions, it makes for very interesting discussions.

I have avoided weighing in on the atheism/religion discussion - even though I have a herd of caffeinated opinions scrabbling for a way out of their confinement. But first I just wanted to sit back and listen. Some of us (my hand is up) simply thrive on laborious existential debate. In any case - this thread is as good a home for such as you're gonna find on SI. (There's always the Reef...)

For some perspective - if you wanna see waht it takes to wear out your welcome on this thread - go back some sixteen months to the time of the Igfestation. The resilience of the lotus eaters here is really something. :-)
