Everyone is Forced by Necessity to Choose (#7)

SO, some people do not believe in God. They have chosen not to believe. Some people believe in God. They, too, have chosen to believe. In some ways, on some levels, either belief can make "sense," depending on your logic and the point you are trying to prove. Passivity, or neutrality, is impossible here. Therefore, as a Christian, I cannot say, "Well, it's okay if you do not believe in God as long as you allow me the freedom to believe in God." As an atheist you cannot say, "It's okay if you believe in God as long as you allow me the freedom not to believe in Him."
In this regard it is not a political issue, but a moral and spiritual one. If I am content with allowing you to treat God as a fairy tale, then what is He to me? A hobby that one can either take up or neglect at will? If you are content with allowing me to treat God as ultimate and eternal reality, then why aren't you, as a thinking and reasonable person, believing in Him as well?
Do you see what I am saying? As a political issue, we can treat belief in God as a take-it-or-leave-it type of issue. That is, we all have the political freedom to believe God or deny Him. Granted, this much is true.
However, as a spiritual issue, there is no middle ground. Either God is real and true and unbelievers choose to deny Him, or God is a fantasy fairy tale and unbelievers humor us by letting us believe in Him/It, sort of like The Great Pumpkin or Santa Claus.
Oh really? Is it that simple? It is my belief that if you really want to get past cliches and labels, such a statement will not hold out as true.
It starts with a belief in Someone (or, dare I say Something?) greater than ourselves individually and collectively. It does not and cannot stay there. Some may want to "keep it simple." To me, it is not that simple....
Would it not offend or amuse the physics professor if you asked him to "keep it simple?"
Would it not offend or amuse the chemistry professor if you asked him to "keep it simple?"
And does it not offend or amuse thinking Christians when the world, in the spirit of rejecting Christ and Christianity, demands that we "keep it simple?"
