I agree. I don't mean to deny people their faith or their right to it. I just feel that there is a point when one has to at least give logic a try. Just a little try. You never know. You might like it. Or, maybe you won't. My big problem is people that won't even consider it, but of course, expect you to consider their beliefs.
Yes, anyone can be zealous about anything. I am a zealot about photography, food, and probably other things as well. Hey, we are all entitled to our obsessions.
