I didn't realise my comments about God would upset so many folk (although mostly Americans). The way I see it if a person believed in vampires or fairies then you would be dismissed as either being a fantasist or having major mental/emotional issues. I think the same idea should apply to those who believe in God. There is no evidence for God, it seems purely wish fulfillment and as the saying goes an extraordinary claim requires extraordinary proof and all the religious types have to offer is 'faith'.
It is the reason however I find 'serious' films such as 'The Exorcist' or the Omen to require the same suspension of disbelief as films like 'Night of the Living Dead' or Elm Street etc. I don't mean to ofend any believers in God but I do find it hard to have respect for people who believe in something so obviously false.
