But unlike god, I only blame you for the results of your iniquities. If you drink without hurting others, you only hurt yourself and maybe not even yourself. If you victimize others in your heart but not the physical world you have shown restraint. Animals do not show restraint.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
