They were both good.
As for me, eating dinner and paying car insurance. Fun times.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.

Brewed my first pot of coffee in about a week. Starbuck's blonde veranda blend. A light, robust flavor. I'd forgotten how good a fresh hot cup of coffee tastes. Mmmmm... nom nom nom ![]()

I'm going to be honest here, I haven't read a book in.. a decade. The last book I did read was 'I dont have enough faith to be an atheist' LOL Mostly because I was on too many nerve and pain meds to be able to comprehend and remember one paragraph to the next. But now that I'm off of them, I've been overly picky in what I want to read. I just end up reading the synopses.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite. Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment. Quote:Some people deserve hell. I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong. ![]()
Had to put "I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be An Atheist" down when I started angrily writing in the margins. Wasn't my book.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Taking a break from really, really, really tiny stitches. The fact that I HAVE to wear strong glasses to do this doesn't help. :S "The Universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements: energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest." G'Kar-B5
Wishing I were drunk but worried about what I would post on AF.org.

Warriors over the 76'ers! (They'd better beat them at least.)
Won a big game of poker after taking the pups for a walk near the bay. Pictures here. http://atheistforums.org/thread-22052-po...#pid601499
So, my laptop broke last night, finally gave up the ghost after three good years. So now, I'm fixing my new one from the Windows 8 hell it has started out as.
Lucky my harddrive was savable. ![]()
