Today I got handed a tiny little leaflet titled "Steps to Peace With GOD" [there are four of them] from an indian guy while I was getting onto the uni bus. He wasn't one of those crazy preacher people who are all in your face like; "Don't you love God?! Why don't you love God?! You should love God!!" He wasn't that bad; harmless really. He was just like "Are you a christian? [politely nod head] You shold be born again." Very calmly, could have been convincing if it wasn't the same contest. Guy missed his calling as a conman. [Or did he?]
It wasn't a bad experience is what I'm trying to say [very poorly], but it did get me thinking on something that has been on my mind for as long as I knew these sort of people [loons] existed. Do they get how crazy they are?? I mean, I believe that there's a big difference between knowledge and belief, but even if they do believe what they're spouting [which I think they do], do they at least know how crazy what thet believe is??
The deep, dark and surprisingly altruistic recesses of my mind [along with the rational ones] would like to think so. It's kind of hard to explain, but believing that lets me believe that they're real people.
Even if I know that they're not.
