Mel, dear, you've just coined a word that I am going to use: 'calmth' is an excellent representation of the open-minded and reasonable attitude that Cerek shows when discussing religion. That's what is needed in a true dialogue, the ability to listen to and respect anothers viewpoint.
FWIW, I've read LaVeys stuff and found it rather fluffy. It's a pretty good example of mid-'70s pop-psych in America, but it doesn't hold much weight in any kind of rigorous debate. Reminded me a lot of L. Ron Hubbards stuff.
