Doug,

You are confusing logic with emotion. There are plenty of examples of
highly
educated and intelligent people who believe in god, or playing the
lottery, or
all sorts of other superstitious nonsense. Albert Einstein believed
fervently in
god, despite his highly developed intellectual abilities. There are people
in
this newsgroup who believe everything in the bible literally happened. The
US is
a very technically advanced country, yet look at who is in the White
House,
spouting creationism. The Japanese culture is incredibly different from
ours. I
do not find it at all incongruous for them to be technically advanced, and
at
the same time very backwards or even foolishly dogmatic in another area.
They
believe in living manifestations of god. You don't.


Well said.

Max
