Trick Yourself Into Believing In God
#7
RE: Trick Yourself Into Believing In God
Once you understand their crushing need to feel "special" all becomes clear.


Quote:There is, in fact, no worldview more reprehensible in its arrogance than that of a religious believer: the creator of the universe takes an interest in me, approves of me, loves me, and will reward me after death; my current beliefs, drawn from scripture, will remain the best statement of the truth until the end of the world; everyone who disagrees with me will spend eternity in hell.
