I like the author of this \'askwhy\' website, and the thinking he goes into and writes about for anyone to read and to react to.He is not like other atheists who are irrational and discourteous, more into griping than sincerely and constructively engaged in exchange of ideas, thoughts, sentiments in regard to God or no God, in particular as respect the Christian faith.But I can\'t understand why not more people are joining this forum.Here is the last thread of this forum:Paradigmatic Revolution or evolution? - by sam - Apr 7, 2009 10:08am That is the last message in this forum, sent on Apr 7, 2009 10:08am, and today in my place it is Oct 30, 2010, Sat 5:00am.I like to ask Dr. Magee, why?Pacho
