I am looking forward to your discussion post, however. Hopefully, I'll finally get to see some solid arguments for theism in there !

Sorry to disappoint you there. As I've said, I have no hope of convincing all of you and I'm not going to try; I wouldn't stand a chance in a formal debate against a dozen of you.

I was thinking more along the lines of why I think it's best to take the conclusions of a certain way of thinking with a grain of salt no matter how right its members think they are. Being skeptical of skepticism, one could say. So yes, it's likely going to seem like a long criticism of Less Wrong's fundamental philosophy, and chances are it won't be too popular—but you never know. I think it's a very good practice in life, not to accept any philosophy too fully.

What gives me the authority to say such things? An outside perspective.
