Maynard:
Here we have a creator deity, who created the universe to have a relationship with one species of primates.....lucky us. And he’s got galaxy upon galaxy to attend to, but he’s especially concerned with what we do, and he’s especially concerned with what we do while naked. He almost certainly disapproves of homosexuality. And he’s created this cosmos as a vast laboratory in which to test our powers of credulity, and the test is this - can you believe in this God on bad evidence, which is to say, on faith? And if you can, you will win an eternity of happiness after you die.
Maynard:
Everyone starts our being an atheist. No one is born with belief in anything. Infants are atheists until they are indoctrinated. I resent anyone pushing their religion on me. Live and let live. Not many people practice that when it comes to religion.
Maynard:
religion is the one area of our conversations where it is considered noble to pretend to be certain about things that no human being could possibly be certain about.
Homer:
i'm pretty certain there is some higher power maynard. Not saying it is a being, but maybe an energy,
Maynard:
^explain what you mean by energy?
weave:
I'd like to believe, but it's far more likely that we're all part of an alien SIM game and your God is an alien equivalent of some 10 year old kid who you better pray doesn't get bored of the game and wipe it off of his computer.
Homer:
We are all intertwined with the energy of the universe, it's either that or what weave just said..
Maynard:
so when everyone is bowing their heads praying to an omniscient god, what they are actually doing is praying to the energy of the universe?
Homer:
Yes or a giant hard drive if weave is correct.
Deleted User:
Hmmmm.....
Deleted User:
Maybe the supreme being is a collection of all our energy. Like when you feel when someone is looking at you from afar. Everything is related and intertwined.
Or something like that.
Riverrat:
I've been thinking of joining the church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. That way I could wear a colander on my head. I think they have more style and work better then my tinfoil hat.

Nakkh:
God is the conclusion you reach, when you can't be bothered to look for the truth.
Homer:
Why do people that don't believe in a higher power get so angry at people that do? What if you are wrong?
Maynard:
^we aren't
ITM:
Some are easy. Some take more time
Violator:
I believe that there has got to be a higher powah...
Maynard:
