Dave's a happy, happy guy this evening. Partly because I have completely recovered now from Finals Syndrome. :o)
Thought I'd share some of the happiness with you by giving you the QOTM winners for April. (Be not in any way
deceived by the fact that it is my duty to share the winners with you anyway as Quotemeister :o)
And so, we offer hearty congratulations to the Theist Quote of the Month winner for April 1999 with fourteen votes . . .
Radelster!

Nominated by McBryan, seconded by raven1
Second place is claimed by Eric's number 5, and third place by Geoff's number 1, with 9 and 7 votes respectively. It
should be noted that Geoff's quote was an unusual theist quote in that it was nominated for its insight and
intelligence rather than its ridiculity.
Congrats to all nominees. May the IPU have mercy on your souls! Following is the nomination and voting record for
April.

"Faith seems a bit like dandruff and halitosis - some have it and some
don't. My difficulty, if you can call it that, is that the nicest
people seem not to have it............. Just look at the mad mullahs,
the American baptists and the Irish Catholics. They are scarcely
housetrained. Reason, or even compassion, just don't seem to enter into
their understanding. I wonder what God Himself thinks about our
approaches to religion and faith."

(Note from Frank: "Seeing something so reasonable come from a theist
for a change reminds me why I nominated this quote in the first place.
I have to vote for this one.")

"Of course it would be the Christian God! The God of Christianity is
the only God there is; if Christianity were completely false, and Islam
were the Holy truth, the God would still be the God of Christianity; it
would just be that Christianity would be a giant mistake."
