I’m an atheist. So why can’t I shake God?

Why should we believe this story is anything other than pure fabrication. You keep going on and on about "free will" this, "free will" that and "free will" the other, yet, your "aunt's" prayer got an answer that violated your most holy (bullshit) belief. The "free will" of the rapist. Something you claim gawd won't do.

I would have just kicked him in the balls.

Praying to an imaginary being seems an unreliable for of rape prevention.

Seems as effective as, "Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi.  You're our only hope!"

BINGO!

"Help me Obi-Wan Can'tJesus, you're my only hope"
"Help me Obi-Wan Can't Allah, you're my only hope"
"Help me Obi-Wan Can't Buddha, you're my only hope"
"Help me Obi-Wan Can't Yahweh, you're my only hope"
"Help me Obi-Wan Can't Vishnu, you're my only hope"

All the same false comforts humans invent in a 14 billion year old universe incapable of caring one shit about one species on one dot, in a sea of 100s of billions of galaxies. If we as a species want to extend our finite ride, we need to wake up and help ourselves.

Yeah.

I heard that there's even some weirdly overly-enthusiastic guy out there somewhere who is convinced that he's a turtle.

Some have made the argument in a pretend scenario they'd give God a chance to explain himself. Not me, my logic would not allow me to swallow any bullshit excuse it could make, considering all the bullshit excuses the fans make. If he couldn't make it clear while we are alive, then I see no good reason to think this being's tactics of making excuses would change after I die. Once an asshole, always an asshole.

I always get the question, "What will you say to god when you stand before him?"

And I reply, "You're under arrest for crimes against humanity!"

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"
