Thanks! I'll take the former option and you can have the latter.

I don't get the feeling it's your choice. *Nice try.

Great try. and I do have a choice.

Uh no, you don't. *If you think you do, then it's just a matter of
proving it.

Oh, you can't? *Have to take it on faith? *You betcha.

Of course I have a choice on if I wish to have a faith or not, and I
have a choice on how to practice what the faith teaches. And what
faith I have I need to prove to no one.

As brilliant as you claim to be I'm surprised you have a difficult
time deciphering that logic.

but it doesn't matter. You have the right, just as I, to believe and
feel however you may.

I have no trouble with you having the right to believe as you see fit
but I certainly have a problem when your lot tells me I'm not going to
heaven because I haven't subscribed to their brand.

If it's there, I'll be pleasantly surprised.

If it's not, neither of us will be disappointed.

I'm not counting on it.
