"For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us."

----Charles Bukowski (Whoever that is.)

Quote from Big_Bill; One mans opinion is another mans bull ship :)

Now what is the question ?

The reason that I am not an atheist is because they have no paid holidays :)

God gave us Beer to show us how much that He loved us.

I've been online, reading his poetry.

This is one of his more coherent pieces.

I think he did a lot of writing from inside a bottle of very cheap liquor.
