I think if you need a funny feeling inside just get something tangible like a vibrator.
You're kidding right? It's a lot more reasonable to think there may be a supreme creator of the universe who doesn't intervene with our affairs than to claim a super old book is the absolute truth and leave the problem of evil unsolved. The only difference from deists and atheists, from my experience, is that the former believe there's some sort of creator of the universe, but both have a tendency to be less dogmatic, less fundamentalist and less idiotic. Maybe it's because my girlfriend is a deist, but I don't have a problem with it.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
