   And so do you, have faith, when you believe in the non-existence of   
   invisible pink unicorns in a parallel universe, right?   
      
   I don't believe we're all brains soaking in pods in a matrix, either, even   
   if I can't prove it, and it doesn't take faith to not believe it. I live my   
   life, as if we aren't 'soakers' and as if there are no gods. All three   
   possibilites are equally absurd, and to make it a question about faith shows   
   a lack of understanding.   
      
   But... why can't you and so many of the, openly, theistic minded, understand   
   that it does not take faith to not believe in something, which takes faith   
   to have belief in the existence of?
