Well Noon,

Just call me old fashion.

I believe that God has a hand in everything that has ever happened since the beginning of time.

And I hear that he is still looking for a few Good Men. Want to try out ?

Thanks Bill but I have fairly strong thoughts on Gods.

Although I was brought up catholic I look at this religion now and shriek.

This particular brand of religion is led by men who do not fuc% and believe in magic. It seems insane to me.

Then I look around the world and see that all of life is about taking the life force of another for your own. In other words one life force rips apart the flesh of another life force in some way and consumes it.

Seems to me this type of set up would not have been put together by a kind and benevolent God.

If there is a God he is more likely to be one that values pain and suffering and I have no intention of worshiping a God like that if nothing is immediately compelling me to.

First, I never said that I believed in RELIGION !

Second, God is not going out ordering his followers to do these acts of violence, his supposed surrogates do, supposed ! God seems to me to be doing a fine job as I see it. He watches us decide what is correct behavior and incorrect behavior, and waits to see which path we choose to take. Some call it Free Will, others, Personal Choices ? So who is really to blame.

Third, He still has a few openings, and HE believes in YOU !

Which explains your grotesque narcissism with worship of idols that launch .230 grain FMJ at 950 fps.

Were you a twenty year E-4?

I'm betting yes.

So, God sorta sits around watching us decide to do whatever it is we want to do? Yup! Good work, Big Guy!
