No, I do not believe in God. From my perspective, God was created by self-interested men so men could put fear into their citizens to control their citizens in their societies. I find that God is a superstitious entity. But, I am still skeptical about whether God really does exist or not because I have not been convinced that God exists yet.

Earlier than that we no doubt had old men sitting around a camel dung campfire "explaining" the world to the younger people. I would imagine that some of them were afraid they would no longer be fed if they didn't keep the "good stories" coming.
Today religion is a business with an non-substantial product that costs nothing to make and costs the consumer all out of reason.

Storytellers aren't afraid that they'll have to keep telling stories to be fed (that's what sparks joy for them)....they're afraid when they keep keep telling stories and people still don't feed them.
The current fate of american churches.

If only people turned those buildings into proper schools and they needed not to give 10% of their gross income (gross not liquid as stealing from the temple is stealing from god, so I've read in a JoHo pamphlet) just a community help, not just money, some elbow grease too.
Wait, I am daydreaming again. Pinch me.

10%? That's a discount. It's 20%...minimum.
If you ask our american presidents spiritual adviser...the choice between paying your electricity bill and sending money to her should be an easy one. Otherwise, you're worshipping FPL...but don't take my word for it.
Quick, errybody, plant your money seeds or your kids will die!

If God existed then he wouldn't be reading this shit.
He'd be mad with the lot of you.

I say let's work on the pretence that God exists and then throw scorn on the idea.
there's a new idea for 1803.

Here's an idea for 2020. Stop speaking in riddles. As in this non sequitur.

Do I believe in a god? No.
But if one were demonstrated to exist I would.
Then I would call him/her/it out as a total cunt and kick it right in the fork. For being a total cunt.

Question is : Where does this "God" word come from, actually?
