z
in
a
friendly
conversation
with
a
spiritual
person
i
said
: "
i
do
not
believe
in
god
",
to
which
he
responded "
so
you
don't
believe
in
anything
?".
this
is
a
question
which
has
been
asked
of
me
for
most
of
my
life
.
i
find
it
offensive
,
even
though
i
know
it
is
usually
asked
innocently.
i
have
begun
to
respond
by
saying
"
actually
,
i
believe
in
everything
,
i
just
don't
need
an
excuse
to
do
so
."
bias
is
bias
after
all
.

Those
who've
always
dwelt

often
cannot
believe
there
is
anything

me
and
my
sister
had
an
interesting
conversation
on
her
birthday
recently
that
shocked
me
considering
she
went
to
catholic
school
most
of
her
life
.
she
told
me
she
didn't
believe
in
god
.
i
don't
either
*shrugs*
'
or
your
buddha
for
that
matter'
'
well
buddhists
don't
think
buddha
is
a
higher
power
allison
.
we
just
think
that
he
was
a
normal
human
being
that
made
some
awesome
realizations
from
sitting
in
one
place
for
awhile'
'
well
that's
cool
then'
who
would've
thought
;
my
sister
the
atheist
