Of course pneumatology is a serious study, so is the consideration of an infinite/eternal "something", whatever we choose to call that "something". Any criticism, explicit or implicit, in my comment should be taken as directed, not at the study, but at those who jump on the bandwagon and festoon it with their own personal banners, some of which serious enquirers find off putting because of their narrow, dogmatic tone.

I have a nasty feeling I am going to have to read "The God Delusion" again to find the quotes I need.


There never was nothing.
