I think the concept of tabula rasa is connected to that? Can't remember anymore, especially at this hour. On a personal level, I do believe in morals, at least some sort of, but not necessarily in universal good/evil. Maybe I'll sacrifice a bit more time for these thoughts some day again : P When I decided to stop trying to be a Christian, I pretty much just declared myself a determined agnostic/atheist and let myself rest from all the metaphysical crap I'd been bothering myself with before.
As for the birthday - thank you, a card would be more than enough : )
