"Atheists dont believe in anything"

 

We've all heard this before: "atheists dont believe in anything," and of course that is not true. Unfortunately, I hear this all too often. Since beliefs are an individual thing (especially among the secular community), I pose the question to you: What do you believe in?

 

I'd love to hear as many thoughts as possible. Hopefully this discussion will generate a diverse enough pool that it would be worthwhile to link this as a response to statements like the one above.

Strega am getting those silly hats and a purple robe or is it a cassock?

I don't know, Onyango.  I was all excited with the starry robes until Kelin posted about the hats and I remembered these - they really are ridiculous, so now I'm torn.  How about alternating?  Could you go with that?

Surely you're not serious?

I have a very nice warm and cozzy ski outfit when the weather craps out, would that be ok?

Or, since I am naked under my cloths, and I can't do a thing about it, why not just cut to the chase....;p)

As many have said, I have heard this before, and I've thought about it a lot.  Here, for what it's worth, is what I've said about this:

You neglected to mention your proclivity for Twizzlers and beer --

I believe I'll have a beer.

Quite independently I put down the same reply (worded a bit differently). So I deleted mine. Great minds drink alike, I guess.

RE: "Great minds drink alike" - shouldn't you add, "and so do I."?

You know, if that was to me, I'd reply:-

"Absolutely, you are quite right.  Great minds drink alike, and so does Arch."

But it wasn't to me, so I won't reply [insert cackling emoticon here]

I resemble that remark!
