If you are a skeptic of any flavor, and you use this material as examples of muddled thinking, 17th century worldviews, Christian obscurantism, 'Funny-mental-ism', etc...all I ask you to do is pray something like this:
"God, if you are up there, help BOTH Glenn AND I become more honest, with both the external data, and our inner senses. And show me that you really are a rewarder of those who search for you in the data of our lives."
Assuming you are more toward the 'agnostic' end of the skeptical spectrum (and not more toward the 'fundamentalist' end... sigh), apart from a waste of five seconds, what do you have to lose, eh?
