It seems to me belief is like falling down stairs. Some people have a sense of balance (asking the right questions), and avoid toppling over (realising they don;t get the right answers). Some people have no sense of balance and fall all the way down to the bottom of the stair where they wait for asshole projection and Nessie...
Good luck to the human race in 2004; it needs it.
