And to you religious nutballs, let's say for the sake of argument that god does exist. Don't you think god has better things to do than to decide who will win a football game based on who prayed the hardest to him/her? I always laugh when I hear a pro sports player give thanks to god for helping them win a game or make a big play. You don't think god has something better to do than to help you in some meaningless game?

And if I were to believe in a god, it wouldn't be yours. I mean honestly, have you taken a good hard look at what kind of god yours is supposedly like? According to your bible, in order to not be sent to eternal damnation when your mortal body dies, you must worship him in all aspects of your life and follow his/her rules. And your god lets constant atrocities take place on a daily basis to supposedly good christian people? What happened, did they not worship him/her enough? What about all the children who are killed on this planet in some of the most painful, excruciating ways possible? What did they do to offend your god? Isn't your god supposed to be all-powerful? And of course, the only answer we ever get from religious nutballs to logical questions like that is "god works in mysterious ways..." Translation: "We have no friggin clue".

My idea of a god is one who works totally in secret. So secret there are no miraculous signs everywhere. He/she/it doesn't require anyone to worship them for their "soul" to be set free. You aren't required to believe in him/her/it to benefit from his/her/it's benevolence. And the only way I'd worship that god is if they didn't require it and they stopped all horrible things from happening on this planet and brought world peace and immortality to us all.

Why do you religious nutballs think that your religion=morals? Everyone has different sets of morals and my set isn't any less valid than your set. Nobody needs to subscribe to your ridiculous religions to have a proper set of morals.

And for those other idiots out there, a lack of religious beliefs is not a religious belief in itself. That's like saying a lack of light is light in itself. It makes you sound like an idiot.
