   You, or some of your co-religionary sympathizers have “reported” my answer. It was expected from …small minds. I just want you to know of how little consequence this reaction has on me. The weak always try to evade an argument… as believers often seem to avoid questioning his/her surroundings. Don’t be surprised at the reaction we atheists have at reading myth-huggers. It’s not violence, it’s exasperation. It’s not a few verses that will bring you joy. That’s an addiction to some sort of virtual hug. The day you crave for some real comprehension form another human being, you’ll understand that there is no supernatural interpreter between the two of you. Maybe then you’ll see the world as a place to respect, not a place to flee from.
   As paradises go, the grass is NOT greener on the other side! There is no grass, and there is no other side.
   Have a good, obedient, submitted life. And try to be happy… If you can.
