The Offer
One day in alt.atheism, Also Sprach The Rev Optional:
My life was improved by atheism.
Yeah! You can drink all day long and not feel guilty?
Since I no longer fear an invisible man
watching me, judging my every move, I can freely make decisions for the
better.
Your better? You don't control ****, I bet your life is a shambles.
Do you control ****? What an outstanding accomplishment! Your parents
must be very proud.
My conscious is clear, knowing I am not a lowly sinner, worthy of
nothing more than groveling to some invisible fairy, and it is apparent
in my manner of conduct, as in my self-esteem.
Throwing the god-monkey off my
shoulders was the best thing I ever did.
This says that you once believed, What happened? God didn't do it your
way?
Religion doesn't make any sense. I saw that at age seven. An agnostic and
deist (somewhat), it still took me about 30 years to realize that my belief
in afterlife was nothing more than wishful thinking.
