But I think accepting the logical possibility that God might exist is completely different to doing my best to love God. I mean, it's not something I'm striving towards. And I don't want to have to promise to do my best to love something I don't personally think exists. Do you see what I mean? If Guiding is a religious organisation (and I don't mean Christian, just religious generally, which if it wants its members to do their best to love some form of supernatural deity, howsoever that manifests itself, I think it must be), then I don't think that's an organisation for me. Which, I know, is coming a bit late in the day as a realisation, and is a bit me on my high horse making a bit of an exhibition of myself, but it's not grandstanding, it's what I believe. Poo.
