Well, actually..
I dislike god as a fictional character, in the same way as I dislike Dolores Umbridge of the Harry Potter series, thus it has little impact on my life. As for the concept of god as a real being, well, I cannot hate something that doesn't exist, now can I?
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
