“I can’t live with the fact that 90% of the world is suffering from a mass delusion” –Contact

I can live with that. I can live with the fact that 90% of the world are, while not stupid, scared as fuck of death and so make hasty and stupid decisions. How can someone possibly listen to someone else tell them what will happen after we die? No one knows. That’s why it’s called “Faith” and not “knowledge”. I can live with the fact that 90% of the word are okay with the murders, stonings, inquisitions, molestations and genocide that have been committed in His name. But you know what I can’t live with? I can’t live with the fact that you want me to believe the same bullshit delusions that you do. Call me a nonbeliever, a sinner, an infidel. Tie me to a stake and burn me or just throw me on the fire with the other faggots. Make me go to a school taught by nuns, or imams, or rabbis, or Buddhist monks, or hindu-ites. Lash me. Crucify me upside down, force me to undergo death by a thousand cuts. Punish me. Because I will never believe what you believe.

Unless you’re an agnostic. In which case, let’s have a beer and talk about what all those stupid people who believe in god and organized religion are going to do next.
