Do your prayers make any difference, they really don't, because God knew
you were going to pray, and he knew his response. You had no choice. You
did what you did because God made you do it that way.

This of course means that God knows the predestination of every person he
created, which means that he knew that he was knowingly condemming a whole
lot of people to an eternity of torture.

I picked up on these and other inconsistencies in the early 1970s. I've
been an atheist ever since.

I wish some few atheists weren't such activists about it, though. It gives
us bad PR and turns atheism into a religion.

For me, a person is allowed to believe whatever they want, as long as it
doesn't affect me. Unfortunately, too many of them don't get that part
and want to force themselves on everyone.

Oddly enough, the greatest sermon, direct orders from the man himself is
ignored by these folk.
