      Why did the atheist cross the road?

      He thought there might be a sidewalk on the other side, but he wouldn’t believe it until he tested his hypothesis.

        Joy, it has been a while since you have posted! Great to hear from you!

        Should your joke not read:

        Why did the atheist cross not the road?

        He thought there might be a sidewalk on the other side, but he wouldn’t believe it until he tested his hypothesis.

          I'm afraid you have misread me. I was saying to Preston that the personal religious views of great historical figures have [corrected/edited; see below] no bearing on my own beliefs. That their work is informed by their beliefs is of interest, clearly.

                Apologies but your remarks were open to such an interpretation!

                  Lord, you're as incorrigible as Preston! Never mind, in my latest guise as "Mr Nice Guy" (as opposed to my former incarnation as "Forum Terrorist and Part-Time Pedant") I accept your apologies wholeheartedly.

                          Joker you are, Joy.
                          I would like too explain, but I don't have to much time.
                          I'll shut up now.
