"In the end there must have been a creator"

I would ask him what kind of no-good omnipotent son of a bitch creates a world that provides ample evidence that his own existence is not needed, writes about his existence in a contradictory and historically inaccurate book, and then expects everyone (on pain of eternal torment) to believe in him in a grand and glorius act of unreason. I would also throw in that since he exists, it was he that gave us the faculty of reason and that makes him utterly at fault, since use of that faculty in the fixed game he has set up leads to failure inm his little test.Then I would wake up from the dream.Hypothetically speaking, of course.

I absolutely do think that mankind invented gods. How else can one explain the vast variety of theistic and mystic ideas mankind has generated through the ages? Manking imagined Santa Claus, Leprechuans, Smurfs, and Gods; there is no reason to believe that any of them really exist.I also take issue with this: Science is in no way the "ultimate provider" of morals, they are a social construct and a product of evolution. I think this statement reveals the writer's bias.However, Phat, my compliments for saying that you believe these things as opposed to saying that your belief constitutes proof.

I'm not angry at god, you arrogant know-it -all. Unreal things do not stir emotions in me. Misguided followers of that unreal thing, like you, who see fit to behave in such condescending, self-righteous, and ignorant ways certainly earn my wrath.Keep your inane comments to yourself.This message has been edited by mikehager, 02-17-2005 19:17 AM
