Hi Rick,
Tonight I saw and read some on your website for the first time, and while I would find it interesting to write back and forth with you about various articles you have written that is not the purpose of my note. Rather I am writing to tell you that I appreciate your wit and humor on your “About” page, I smiled as I read it.
As for where I am coming from, I came from a Christian background and over time have practically speaking become agnostic, but I like to continue to read/think. So thanks for making me smile. Hope you have a good day.
