    Sam,

    There is high level of emotional attachment to this claim. Would you add
    another claim too? I have faith that Tinkerbell lives in Neverland. So
    how about the claim Tinkerbell lives in Neverland? If someone has a more
    appropriate myth to add, so much the better. The idea being that what can
    be said about one faith-based assumption should hold with the other
    faith-based assumption too.
