After that, I started reading the bible and realized the "kind and loving" guy I was worshipping was an idiotic prideful asshole. Ironic isn't it? God forbids pridefulness but is the most prideful character ever invented? So much so, he gets offended by people who don't believe in him to the point of eternal torture. Fuck him and whoever wrote about him. I decided I wouldn't wanna worship him even he was real. Thank god he's not.
This post brings tears to my eyes, its so true.
What kind of loving God punishes his 'children' for eternity, without the possibility of reform? Or punishes trivial lifestyle choices such as homosexuality or premarital sex?
What kind of loving God commands his chosen people to commit genocide? To kill women and children? To engage in war with support from his angels?
It's a good job this isn't the God worshiped by most religions.
If I die and god is real, im so screwed.
