"I like the first one, although I am puzzling over whether you are calling it transient or transcendent - these are quite different things. In other words, do you think atheism without study (which I think is what you are saying) is transient (a…"

Des Bellamy replied to scott martins's discussion IS EVERYBODY 100% POSITIVE THERE IS NO GOD?
