I'd say I've seen plenty of evidence of non-evangelicals and non-Christians being irrational. It doesn't seem to follow that not being evangelical makes a person more rational.
I'm totally in agreement with you on this one! I was merely expressing my admiration for the rationality of some of our founding fathers specifically. That's all.

You're probably right about that. His stuff is still beautiful though. I'll have to remember to bring my CDs.

So far, I've got:

Thomas Paine
Robert Green Ingersoll
Thomas Jefferson
George Washington
James Madison
Benjamin Franklin
Abe Lincoln (questionable)
Anne Frank
Voltaire
Charles Darwin
Albert Einstein
Ghandi
Epicurus
Socrates
Plato
Carl Sagan?

I thought about starting the list as "famous good" people, but that's too subjective.

Add to the list, guys. </strong>
John Lennon and George Harrison.

'nuff said

It seems that nobody mentioned Mark Twain yet.
