Thanks... very moving.

Interesting thing about your god, if he did exist, I wouldn't worship him. The idea of living on my knees for a self-professed, jealous tyrant, does not appeal to me.

I figure I'd be better off taking my chances with satan, I'll tell you why. First off, like I said, I think your god is a tyrant. So where does that leave me when I die? Now I know what you're going to say, but stay with me, my story gets better. Second, everything we know about satan, we get from a book that was written by his enemy's cronies. Didn't see that coming, did you? Now, satan and his fallen angels had a fight with god, but why? The bible says they were jealous (I think...), but more likely, they god tired of his incessant self-righteousness, just like I would. This is when the biblical smear campaign begins to try and keep other people from following satan's example and rebelling. Well, I'm not buying it.

So, if I were predisposed to believe in the supernatural, and I had to choose between living for eternity in heaven on my knees, or take my chances that satan is not such a bad guy, I'll take door number two please. Besides, all the bad girls would be in hell!

Do other people besides yourself have a mind? How do you know that they aren't just pre-programmed robots? Explain.

You really don't know about love. The agape type. No strings attached, unconditional.

Just because you don't believe in something, doesn't mean it's not true. If you stopped shaking your fist at God long enough, he'd maybe want to hold that hand.
