Are All Believers Insane? [View all]
Hi, my name is Rabbi Tzvi Freeman. I am the person your professor warned you about.
Why? Because I am a true believer. I believe first and prove afterwards.
More than that, I am a dogmatist. Even when the reality before my eyes flies in the face of all I believe, I continue as doggedly as before. Until I get the facts to conform to what I believe.

I was originally going to post this in Religion as I think the article is very interesting, but the author is not kind to atheism, and it would probably cause many hurt feelings.
