Day 1

ahhhh, religion.

Personally, I'm still figuring things out. As of right now, I worship the sun. Christian folks often say, why worship a creation and not a creator? Because there is no evidence of the creator. I can see the sun, feel the sun, there are logical facts about the sun. Another thing about Christianity that bothers me is this "God's plan" business. If God planned for all these horrid things to happen, then he must have a couple of screws loose in his head. When some people hear "horrid things" they think the Holocaust, slavery, 9-11. A Christian would tell you, "Well, all those things ended, didn't they? That was God's work." But what about problems that never end? Hate crime. Theft. Drugs. Low self esteem. Alcohol. Eating disorders. Self mutilation. Murder. Suicide. Those things don't ever, EVER end. So, Christian. How come your God hasn't saved me from those things? One more thing I am hung up on is that supposedly, God isn't discriminatory. And yet, it says IN THE BIBLE, that those who don't believe in God will be damned to hell. If that isn't discrimination, I don't know what is.
I could go on and on about this. I really could. I'll stop for now. I wish I could believe in God or the Bible. But this is what I stand for, and no one has been able to move me otherwise.



"The difference between a Christian and an Atheist is that a Christian won't rob a bank because he thinks he will go to hell and God will not love him. An Atheist doesn't rob the bank because it's a dick thing to do."
