I think there is a lot more interesting stuff than that here. I for one don't waste my time on establishing this or that about the Church, but there is plenty to discuss and argue and learn about for those who interested in the Church and its culture for reasons other than justifying their faith or loss of it.
I agree completely. People don't need intellectual reasons (or any reason) for either leaving or staying in the Church or concluding something affirmative or dispositive one way or an other.What I find impossibly boring is the over-intellectualizing of reasons to conclude the church isn’t what it claims to be. It’s totally inconsequential to me, so if there isn’t any light-hearted humor involved in it, it holds nothing for me.
The necessity of humor of whatever weight is simply not something up for debate.
