RE: Pastor once told me we all naturally believe in god

I am one of those several. I've said this often enough before, that if I ever had any god-shaped leanings, I left them behind with the monster under the bed.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Oh yes, the 'we're all god's children' argument. *pukes* I think the most offensive thing theists can say is that god is our father.
Its insulting enough to give this imaginary god of yours the credit that belongs to our actual real biological fathers, but to tell us we're now related to a cosmic evil bastard tyrant as well? Really?
*sigh* -.-

All this proves is that if one doesn't have the intelligence to actually accomplish anything, one can still be a pastor.

For "intelligence" we could also read "integrity".
