Have you been touched by his noodly appendage lately? Be forewarned, those of you that deny your complex-carbohydrate creator are destined to rot in Noodle Hell for eternity, where they only serve warm beer.

LOL. I want to read that pastafarianism book. I just can't find it at my library. Maybe I can mooch it off of one of my friends...

Anyway, I'm not very religious. I have a problem with unshakeable Creationists as much as I hate athiests that spout the uselessness of religion. I still believe that there is some higher power, be it God or whatever, because I think it's better to think so than not. Heck, when you die, wouldn't you want to believe that you'll have a chance to go to some cool city in the clouds? If not, an eternity of nothing is pretty damn depressing. And wasn't there some study in TIME magazine that produced the possibility that faith/religion helps people live longer?

I just don't like Dawkins. I think that he's a great scientist, and that he's done quite a bit of good for the scientific community, but the man's terrible and biased attitude towards religion makes me angry. He's on my hit list along with Blagejovich and the people who made that blasphemous movie version of the Golden Compass. Oh, and the people who made the non- existent Tsukihime anime.

Sure, I'd rather believe than not, but it's not something I can "choose" to do, no more than I can "choose" to disbelieve in gravity or "choose" to believe in Zeus. Especially the idea of doing so for dishonest reasons. If God is that powerful, he would have the ability to see through my ploy to get into Heaven.

Think about death this way. You weren't inconvenienced at your non-existence 1,000 years ago, why would that change after you die? In reality, I think immortality is the cruelest punishment you could inflict on a sentient being.

I PREFER to believe that when we die, our consciousness disappears forever and we're left at peace.
I strongly hope that there is no after-life of any kind.
