Godless and proud of it! I just looked at some new blogs on the block. One of them caught my attention. It said we should give praise to God. I had to respond. I said something like this:
Any God that designed a system where the big animal has to eat the small animal, is the mind of a sick and twisted idiot. If I was God, I could have designed a better and more merciful system for planet Earth.
Sometimes, I really like these little sparks of brilliance. It is hardly original though. Gary Numan once said something to that effect. Check this page for his and other great quotes.
Of course, there is no god. People who think there is one are simply afraid/insecure of their own mortality.

"There is no creator" - the Dalai Lama. These are words of common sense, and it tells me that "spirituality" has nothing in particular to do with a belief in the supernatural. But then, those of us who grew up in the seventies watching "Kung Fu" already knew that being a vegan, atheist who follows the path of the buddha can reach enlightenment.
All kidding aside, what does a vegetarian atheist have to say? Stick around and you'll find out! Politically I'm rather liberal, but I do like to listen to staunch conservative talk show host Michael (the 'Whiner') Savage so I'll probably be mentioning him from time to time in my weblogs. So for now, how about some talk of broccoli, carrots and peas? Recipe's anyone??

"As mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations of justice and liberality."
