[MD] MOQ and some interesting a-theology quotes about non-gods

[Peter Corteen]

Arlo, you seem to take offence where none was intended or maybe you just
find what I write offensive?

Probably I have not been clear enough or read your post thoroughly enough.
But you talked about that new brand of religion in America and that reminded
me of my Nigerian friend (not you personally).

I did not wish to make any insinuations. I did not have you in mind when I
wrote about my religious friend.
