Of course not; god isn't satisfied with belief, he needs us all bowing so long and so often we get stuck like that while we compliment his lovely tornadoes and tsunamis.

Sheesh, it's like you don't even know the god you so clearly secretly believe in!

Nooo, believing in God is not enough. You have to say the right words at the right time in the right order and believe reams of fineprint about who's a virgin and stuff like that.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition

It's quite telling that this is the best response he can muster.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, I dont want to drag the thread off topic, but here's a similar video of Russell Brand proving once and for all, that behind all the big words he uses (parklife), he's a moron.

I'm so busy secretly eating babies I just don't have time to secretly believe in God too.

Well my opinion of Russell Brand has just plummeted. I didn't think that was possible.

I couldn't get through more than half of the Brand video, because the closest thing he got to having substance was the fine-tuning argument.

Yeah, I've just lost all respect for the man after that ridiculous video.

I always used to think he was very hit and miss. A lot of the time I got the sense he just liked to use big words for the sake of big words and to make himself sound a lot more intelligent than he actually is. Politically he makes a lot of sense, but he would always throw in his spiritual mumbo jumbo bullshit where it isn't warranted or needed. With that rebuttal to Fry, I've gotta say, he's as moronic as the muppet in the OP.

Brand just lost me as a fan.

My reaction to that if it was said to me in person would be "There, there, dear, of course we all believe in God", Smile, look at my watch, "Oh, gotta go now, buh bye"

I just can't predict the reaction of a hopelessly insane person to what I'd really like to say... Big Grin
