Because if being atheists might be fatal and it results in hell, we're planning on living out where the real wind blows, knee deep in sin. Every day we shall drink to sleeping late and having fun, drinking whiskey and go so fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested.Originally posted by LBKLK:

And one hell of a stunning ending to the times when even being wrong feels so right!

"Mamma, Mr. Burgess said in his sermon that billions of little creatures are sent into us to give us cholera, and typhoid, and lockjaw, and more than a thousand other sicknesses and -- mamma, does He send them?"
"You know the lightning did come last week, mamma, and struck the new church, and burnt it down. Was it to discipline the church?"
(Wearily). "Oh, I suppose so."
"But it killed a hog that wasn't doing anything. Was it to discipline the hog, mamma?"

most ppl who believe in any religion must have substantial faith in it for after all, it isnt proven and can never be. Else, it would be call science. However, that is perceive by many as blind faith and i for one would rather live the day believing in what i can see and feel, thing i that can realistically call real then to live hopping that life start after death. I might be short sighted, but at least i know that i had enjoy living today as i had for all other passing one. Somes are crappy, somes are great, nevertheless, all are as real as the air we breath and the food we eat. Simplicity are such wonderful delight.
