- If there were a God, then he would just destroy everything now and get it over
- with instead of dragging out this long and cruel joke--surely the joke would
- have gotten old by now and God can only get so much entertainment value by
- watching pathetic little humans trying to influence and order what goes on
- in a universe that no matter how much we want to believe it, we simply can't
- do shit to change anything and all that has to happen is a nice natural
- disaster and we are putty in nature's hands to be molded into a cute little
- mammal image and then smashed back into a blob; for either he (He) would have
- to be impossibly cruel or just plain stupid.
