Tim asks:
"did i ever blame "the devil, or evil, or the number 666, or your subconscious, or the inhalation of bad vapours"? as DAM thinks I did?"

Yes you did. You believe in things for which you've not a shred of supporting evidence. That is precisely the same thing.

Whether you cloak it as a deity or via some contrivance such as "?" it is still the same thing. They are all just forms of the invisible purple rhinoceros.

There is no such thing as evil.
There are only things you don't like.
Time to get over it and accept the universe as it is.
