I can get pretty close.
Hello, Newbie.
I was never arsed either way about religion until 9/11.
"Let them get on with it if they want to believe in crap, it doesn't affect me" was my motto.
Then that happened and suddenly I developed a position on religion, and it wasn't friendly or understanding. I was fucking outraged if the truth be told. Yeah, yeah, yeah - they were extremists - however 9/11 wouldn't have happened without religion.
Only religion could convince 19 men to kill themselves and thousands of others because they thought they were going to be shagging virgins in paradise for ever.
I've been bitter about the shite that people believe in, ever since then.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
