It isn't certain that there is an afterlife. The only thing we know is that we live here and now. Because of that, I won't follow a murderous, misogynistic, hateful, vile, unforgiving and psychotic god with his dumbass sheep of a congregation. And if only True BelieversTM are the ones to get into 'heaven', I'd rather choose hell, where my peers and friends would be.
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
