Godlessness and coffee
I've got a "Why I'm an atheist" post percolating, especially after some discussion with
dionysus1999 yesterday, but it's not quite ready for posting.
So, in the meantime, do you like coffee? Why or why not?
How do you like it? Black? With cream or sugar?
Do you like it prepared a certain way, say on the stove in and old-fashioned percolator, or in a french press? What makes this method superior?
Do you have a favorite "froofy" drink when you go out to a coffee shop?
Which coffee shops make the best coffee and which are over-rated?
Have you tried to cut down on caffeine, and how successful were you?
Did you used to dislike coffee but acquired a taste for it?
What do you think about flavored coffees?
Tell me your thoughts on java, please!

I dig on a lot of the Buddhist and Quaker ideas i've run into, too, and actually am even quite down with Christ's actual message (tho not so much with the rest of the dogma that tends to come along with most flavors of Christianity)... but as seems to be the case with you, none of them seem to sync up with my actual spiritual beliefs, per se.
What's been rolling around in my head the past few years are some beliefs and ideas that sort of map many religions/philosophies into a common view of God. What's also fascinating me is that the workings of science and perhaps even the atheistic viewpoint might fold into it, too...
...and that's partially why i'm interested in the atheist viewpoint. That, and i have some very good friends who are atheists, and i am really interested to see if the ideas of many folks who i love and respect might somehow fit into the big picture of "spiritual" ideas.
