I want you to know, when it comes to believing in god- I really tried. I really really tried. I tried to believe that there is a god who created each one of us in his own image and likeness, loves us very much and keeps a close eye on things. I really tried to believe that, but I gotta tell you, the longer you live, the more you look around, the more you realize...something is ****ED-UP. Something is WRONG here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is NOT good work. If this is the best god can do, I am NOT impressed. Results like these do not belong on the resume of a supreme being. This is the kind of **** you'd expect from an office temp with a bad attitude. And just between you and me, in any decently run universe, this guy would have been out on his all-powerful-ass a long time ago. [George Carlin, from "You Are All Diseased".]

you say this 'stuff' because you have never- ever in your heart truly met Him
as your saviour-
so you have nothing to base your judgements on except your own emptyness.
i promise you that when you do come face to face with Him-( and you will)
you will believe- whether you want to or not.
Ooooo, I'm soooo scared..
I never did have any respect for bullies so your threats make no impact on me.
