In the quick and dirty new world of blogging with an undependable computer that I'm in, in the period since my morning break, I've decided I really like the metaphor of materialist atheism as a Chutes and Ladders Game with a chute on square two and a die that only has ones on it. You can play the game as long as you want but since you undermine the intellectual basis for playing it with the rules and set up, you can't get anywhere.
If you start out by discrediting the significance of thinking, you can't claim that your own thinking is, somehow, not covered by that. Since I don't start out there, I suspect this idea will develop.
