Rational people don't believe in gods.

On the very contrary, Chris: It is _precisely_ the rational people who might end
up believing in God.

I'd say with very much certainty, that the more science one has done, the closer
one gets to God. In the end, the mind completely boggles with the wonders that
are out there. It's just too much to be explained by any _single_ human
endeavor, scientific or otherwise.

One either sees Him or not. The distinction is as clear as the light of day.
Atheists for example are as much convinced that there is no God, as much as
theists are convinced that He exists. But, if He has decided that you (or anyone
else) should not see, then I don't think it is wise for anyone to try to
convince anyone otherwise.

I am content with the atheist, as much as I am with the theist, because it is
fairly obvious that both are a different face of Him. You are as much one side
of Him as any theist is.

In the end what matters is for us to come to terms with this divine variety and
perhaps, even enjoy it :-)
