I like the notion that you, "a lowly human incapable of understanding the supreme master of all things", could show greater love and forgiveness than their supposed
merciful, loving and just god. What's most cool about your post is that by writing it, you not only have already shown more grace and forgiveness than their jealous jehovah, but you've also proven that a non-believer has it within him to be a good, morally responsible, kind hearted and fair individual.

If atheists were the monsters they'd like you to be... you would've stopped writing after you threw their god into hell. If I could give you extra kudos - I would. I wish there were far more of you in this world Rev.

I believe that we humans should be benevolent in the name of benevolence itself. If one is being kind merely to avoid being punished or to receive a reward then the concept of benevolence is cheapened. True benevolence is a sacrifice. A willingness to look beyond petty squables and step forward in the name of kindness for the very sake of kindness itself and nothing more. I'm willing to forgive, but I will never forget.


I find the lack of integrity in humanity to be the most disturbing trend these days. Greed is glorified and true sacrifices in the name of benevolence are rare and far between. Greed will be the death of America. Greed destroys the family unit and thrusts a dagger into the back of your closest friends. Greed (selfishness), in my opinion, is diametrically opposed to benevolence.

I agree 100%. Its like saying that a person made a sacrifice by giving away a million dollars to charity, yet still has 20 billion in his bank account.
