You've managed to sum up my feelings about revealed religion exactly.<BR/><BR/>I often tell people I became an atheist the day my first son was born. The overwhelming feeling of unconditional love the instant I saw the little person "I created" made me wonder how God could ever want "his creation" to suffer for all eternity. <BR/><BR/>When I stopped believing in god, the world became more beautiful and I saw all life as even more precious due to it's fleeting nature.Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00962744853944159756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4140917903722388348.post-37517297429780640482008-09-12T11:08:00.000-05:002008-09-12T11:08:00.000-05:00Although a proper quote, in the future I suggest y...Although a proper quote, in the future I suggest you refrain from citing such "quality" blockbusters as Hellboy in order to make an important point.
