87. Totally agree. God? Is God that egotistical and needy that he actually
Edited on Mon Nov-27-06 03:23 AM by caledesi
needs us? I don't think so.

Pet God Peeves:

Spectator sports where the winner thanks God. Like God actually cares who won the game?

Any "organized" religion. (money; war; elitist; et al)

'The Bible says..." Hello? The Bible is based of faith not fact. If you want to believe it's the word of God, that's ok, but don't preach like it's a fact bec it's in the Bible.

Assuming that one believes in God, period. How many atheists are in jail? How many atheists rammed jets into buildings? How many atheists shoot abortion doctors? How many atheists blew up the OK City building. You get the point?

Never understood "God-fearing"...if God is so kind and good, why would you fear him?
Why are "religious" people afraid to die.

Funny story: A Jewish friend of mine was approached by a fundie downtown and the fundie asked him whether he would like to know Jesus. His response: 'Know Him, we are related.' Isn't that great?

BTW, I consider myself a pantheist (God is nature; nature is God)

BTWW, I think the original post is excellent.

Edit: forgot stuff
