Talk:Roger Ebert


Reading through Ebert's entry, he REALLY seemed like an atheist. However, then I read this: "I wrote an entry about the way I believe in God, which is to say that I do not. Not, at least, in the God that most people mean when they say God. I grant you that if the universe was Caused, there might have been a Causer. But that entity, or force, must by definition be outside space and time; beyond all categories of thought, or non-thought; transcending existence, or non-existence. What is the utility of arguing our "beliefs" about it? What about the awesome possibility that there was no Cause? What if everything...just happened?"

Yes, he says he doesn't believe in a God. But then he says, it really depends on what you mean by a God...implying that he might be willing to believe in one, depending on definition. While I THINK he and I share similar viewpoints on the existence of God, he leaves certain things fuzzy and I think that's the definition of Ambiguous. Too bad!
