I approach this writing with some hesitation. There is much to be gained in such an effort but also much to be lost. This will be clear as we proceed. However, it must be forthrightly recognized that there is no heroism in such a revision of thought. When we have to do with religious commitment it is not heroism that energizes a change in position and commitment but rather a tenacious use of reason to acquire truth. This is not to say that a departure from a faith structure to a non-God position is easy or to be taken lightly. It costs quite considerably.
