Esoteric Agenda a Fundamentalist Rhetoric:
Spiritualty Sceptic; Spiritualty Rational: Aside from atheists’ annoying detachment from God, Atheists and Christians have one thing in common: both believe, as Allan Watts puts it that the world is an ‘artefact’ of nature; how the artefact came into being is another matter.
