Like most Catholics (if not all), they believe that their god is all powerful and full of miracles. they said that according to their bible god cured the sick and punished the bad guys among inumerable things. since
i'm an atheist, i'm going to test what they said. here's what i am going to do to see if their good will perform some sort of miracle and punish me for being "bad".
i will take their holy cross off their altar and dip it a pile of steaming shit head first. then i'll leave it to dry and observe if god will perform miracles to wipe the shit off his face.
then i will wait and see if he's going to kill me with lightning or raise a flood of biblical proportion to wipe off mankind and start over again. in the past, god was very eager and efficient at punishing and
killing sinners so there are no reasons for me to believe he'll stop doing that. but somehow i'm doubtful any of these will happen.
so i'm going to begin my experiment now. if i don't report back in a few days you can assume that i've been annihilated by 'god'. if that happened you would have reasons to stop
being atheist and convert to christianity. on the other hand, if i survived, we can continue to be atheist.
Feel better now that you've gotten that off your chest?
