On atheism, part two

I was thinking more about that not having enough faith to be an atheist thing.

Everyone of any religion has faith. Every atheist has faith - faith that God does not exist. The only people who potentially don't have faith are those who truly don't believe in anything, and I don't think people like that actually exist. They're fooling themselves.

That explains why I've always been good friends only with either people with religious beliefs or complete atheists. They're not opposite ends of the spectrum like they would like to believe.

It's undecided people I can't stomach. People who change what they believe according to trends or who, like Marilyn Monroe, believe in "everything, a little". People who don't have a viewpoint to defend or to justify to themselves.

That's why my best friends, to date, have been Christian, Muslim, Baha'i, Jewish, Wiccan, Satanist and atheist. Anything but the in-between.
