It about time it was openly discussed. Reason is coming out of the closet and facing faith.

It's everywhere, but always has been. There was always too much fear associated with "coming out" as an atheist/freethinker. It's about time this is happening.

Imagination = God. I like that.
Imagination = Ghost. Doesn't even sound good, sounds childish (no offense to you personally).

None taken. The holy ghost is just as real to millions of people as any other.
