It seems that even for a non believer there is something to be gained or learned from the faith of Noah.
Quote: God cannot be angered, pleased or prompted because he already knows the future. He's all powerful and all knowing, he can change things so that no one needed to die, no creation lost and no action required. God fails on all these. Some god....Why would an immortal seek to preserve a temporary existence in the face of an eternal one? Only those who worship this life with all of their being see death as an absolute or take offense when one does not fear it as they do. Know God does not sacredly value your understanding of life as you do. For He sees our deaths in this life as are our births into eternity. Why prolong our labor pains any longer than we need to endure them? If you have made your choice or had the oppertunity to do so then the purpose of your time here has passed.
