If the God of the Torah or the Bible or the Koran truly existed, could you bring yourself to worship Him with a straight face?  Not me. Not even if I tried my hardest.

I feel myself drawing back to the stephen fry interview video, but sparing that basically as he said, why should I want to worship a spineless, intolerant, cruel and stupid god, that looks down from his ivory tower judging our actions on something he himself created like a child with a playset.

This is why its so easy to debunk everything the bible says, because its written from the minds of tribesmen whos view of the world was limited at best and there imagination for their made up deity was lacking any creativity. At least the norse and greek patheons were interesting characters.

And spoken with such passion and indignation. It is exactly how I feel.

1liesalot - I agree, and I am Jewish!

Munch ... you are a Loki fan, am I right?  I would have to vote for Thor ... and not just because of the recent movies.

Completely unrelated, but why does the guy in your avatar have boobs? I know they're supposed to be his pecs, but they're so huge it looks like he has a G-cup rack.

Hijiri ... moobs, not boobs.

Generally speaking ... I don't believe in worship anyway.  This is related to the Indic yoga category of Bhakti Yoga ... I don't do that.  I relate to Jnana Yoga or Raja Yoga.  Clearly Munch would appreciate Hatha Yoga.

its the artist, Patrick Fillion. he draws very overly eccentric masculine features, including dongs the size of fire extinguishers.

What I don't like about it is it's not a proper loop, unlike my graceful spinning Reimu-chan. If it smoothly reversed to pan back up to his face, I don't think it would annoy me. As such, it's *JERK* *JERK* *JERK* Ugh.

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?<br />Then he is not omnipotent,<br />Is he able but not willing?<br />Then whence cometh evil?<br />Is he neither able or willing?<br />Then why call him god?

If Abrahamic God were real he would not expect me to worship him because we both know my part in the story is not the hero but the cautionary tale. I picture us just looking at each other knowingly before I burst into flames.

Which is why so many Christians have nuke fantasies ;-(
