Another good J&M this week; sums up quite a lot of interactions atheists have with religious folks in that they often refuse to believe that you simply don't believe what they do, it's often necessary to be explicit, i.e. we don't believe it in the same way that you don't believe in fairies or unicorns etc. I guess it's hard for all of us to step outside of our mental "bubbles", in my experience though it's quite useful that we try from time to time, or at least be gracious enough to listen to the ideas of those not in our own.
