way of a fool

Do not try to couch your absence as a principled stand for truth because it's quite the opposite. Could it be that you don't have a leg to stand on? That your own group of minds differ on their beliefs? That your founder differed on his belief and yours?

The only thing rigged against you is your own profoundly large lack of credible evidence. Good luck at the Throne telling Him He had no part in the creation of what He loved.
