Atheist's guide to the 2012 election

[Dumac Dwarfking]

I do enjoy Penn Jillette, and I'm with him on this one. I believed all that shit in the bible when I was younger, but for the life me I don't know how. Out of fear I guess. I never really justified it with reality, because as soon as you try to justify that shit with how the world actually works, it starts falling away, but you're already in a position where if you doubt, you've lost your place in heaven and you're going to hell, so you don't justify it, you don't even think about it. You just have to accept it and not question it, because as soon as you question it you're doubting. John 3:15 was always in the back of my head. "That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life". If I was doubting I wasn't believing in Him, and I was risking my place in heaven. So no, I don't think people really believe that bullshit, they just... don't think about... it's too risky...
