God

So I’m going to write something on the assumption that Christianity is the correct religion and God does exist (and is not an invisible flying spaghetti monster).

As I sat in church on Easter as I do every year, I began to think about what a crock of shit all that stuff is. “God loves you!” “He’d come and die just for you!” Bullshit. OK? Bullshit. That bears no meaning whatsoever. If I were the only person on Earth, Jesus would come and die just for me? No he wouldn’t. He’d say, “Hey Scott. What’s goin on pal? Want me to forgive you of your sins?” and I’d say, “Oh hey Jesus. Sure, that sounds great.” I think that’s about the gist of what would happen. Jesus showed great love by making himself a man and coming to Earth to suffer and die they say. What the fuck? If God was so great, why would he not just hang out on Earth all of the time and just hang out with people. Everyone would know God was real and there would be no other religions to fight with each other. There would be no spiritual debates. I guess that would just be too easy. God wants us to wonder if he’s there, choose a religion, and if we get it wrong we go to Hell. Sound fair to you? That’s like me giving you a hypothetical test and saying that if you get the question wrong, I’m going to torture you for all of eternity. You know what we call people like that? Lunatics! Sadistic fucks! Demented, insane, psychotic supreme being.

It’s just like the story of Adam and Eve. God creates a utopia for man to live in. Also, God knows everything that has, is, and ever will happen. So what does he do? He creates the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, knowing full well what is going to happen if he puts that fucking tree there. So he says to Adam and Eve, “Hey guys, do whatever you want. Just don’t eat any of those apple over there or I’ll fuckin’ kill you.” And then he sneaks off to wherever it is that he goes off to and sits there thinking about how awesome hell is going to be. He thinks about all of the people that he’s going to send there and all of the different forms of ironic torture fitting for their transgressions. What kind of being does that? Seems to me like God is the worst killer in the history of the world, except instead of just killing people, he sends them to a place of eternal damnation and suffering. Sure, he tries to blame it on man and their free will, but can you really do that? It’s like setting a trap that you know is going to work and then acting surprised when it does.

I don’t understand this “God” character. I guess that’s what Christians want you to think. “You can’t understand God. He has his own plan. A holy, awesome, wonderful plan for everything”. Yeah, right, sure he does. After this world is over and there is a new Heaven and a new Earth, you think he’s going to put some fucked up temptation out there for someone to get a hold of and fuck things up for everyone again? I wouldn’t put it past him with his track record. I guess we’re all just destined for a fucking terrible eternity. I guess this rant is nearing an end, but I think those are some pretty critical points I have discussed. Seems to blow a hole right through this “Loving God” theory...
