A few thoughts on God...

This is less about religion and more about God.


God's getting credit for all the good things - rainbows and the laughter of children and all that shit, which is all good, but what about all the hurricanes and cancer and natural disasters? All life is supposed to be sacred, but it's not - not to you, not to me and judging by the number of natural disasters, not to God, either.


"God works in mysterious ways."


Yeah, if someone came home and I'd busted a water main and guided the AVALANCHE into the fucking living room, that's not mysterious, that's a fucking lunatic with a shovel and a soggy EVERYTHING. I wouldn't get away with turning around and saying, "I'm working in mysterious ways."


People can do good things. But if their instincts are not good either God doesn't exist or he is unimaginably cruel.... If you believe in eternity then life is irrelevant. The same as a bug is irrelevant in comparison to the universe.


If you don't believe in eternity then what you do here is irrelevant.


It's also worth wondering why it's hard to tell the difference between religious behavior and psychotic behavior. You talk to God, you're religious - God talks to you, you're psychotic.


Maybe it's just me, but I find it hard to buy into the hypocrisy and hype. Faith is all fine and good, but no one's going to live their life blindly by faith alone, but they'll believe one person created everything on exactly that, despite the fact they're not willing to risk their lives an wellbeing on the belief that "God will provide everything they need."


Right. Tell that to the homeless folks.


Just avoid the homeless folks who have faith in God, because the world thinks they're insane.
