Sometimes God takes His time? Yeah! Me too! I take my time on promises too! Is that the logic they taught you in Rev-school?

What if I were to argue that prayers or no prayers changes occur, and those prayers (and God for that matter) are imaginary manifestations invented in the head for the purposes of pretending you've got some sort of control over situations that are completely out of your control?

What about that argument? Does that logic keep me from having to alter my site for you? I feel that it's a very valid explanation and the evidence leans heavily in my favor.

A concerned citizen trying to keep logic alive for future generations.

This is not hate mail but it's not fan mail either:

Dear Bob,
We have encountered your view-points on spirituality in the course of a spiritual quest; because we don't really grasp the logic within your philosophies (despite your immense efforts to assert your intellectual reign) we require some elaboration.

Your theology is representative of one who promotes hatred and intolerance; in a world engrossed with inequity, what is the significance or value in dictating a site which merely mocks a persons convictions that are the embodiment of love? Is this the solution to make our standard of existence better? Why do you promote this ideology of moral desecration? Think about this in the course of your day: are you so consumed with hate that, you, as a person requiring interpersonal relationships with others, in addition to an integrated reliance upon and purpose within society would just as soon watch the world depreciate into a state of misery and total selfishness?

Or you would prefer that the people- who you love in your life, experience no meaningful relationships with others? And the present system of ignorance and bigotry continues within this society?- a society which potentially could gain enlightenment from the teachings of numerous belief systems. We should not consider it an option to degrade the values that give people meaning within their lives. We should honor and respect others- even occasionally concede though it may entail a dent to our hard earned reputations as immoral, and obscene rapscallions. So, insult another's faith, but eventually I pray that your eyes will see the true and direct consequences of these ideals which you manifest. The world doesn't have to be so shitty- but as a whole it will never become better if we as individuals don't change our thinking and agree that we can live as one.

Sincerely, Jas and Woo

Hello Jas and Woo (Two people to write an email. Interesting.)
First of all I would like to clarify a few important points for you. There is no hatred from me on my site. I do not hate whoever you think that I hate, and your careless assumption seems to be a result of your not caring enough to read further into my pages, and for this I hate only you two.

My mockery of convictions derives not from hate (as you so readily concluded) but from a passionate desire to promote logical thinking in combination with an annoyance with those who believe fairy tales to be true. I believe that promoting logical thinking and Science is the key to making our standards of existence better, along with promoting laughter at ones own self. I would even be willing to counter your wordy, grandiose judgments of me by arguing that believing in fantasy lands based simply on the message of love is as harmful as any misinformation, if not more so. Your deceleration of the opposite also inspires hate from me to the both of you.

I believe that it is possible to promote logical thinking, science, truth and common sense without abolishing this thing called "love." Would you not agree that love does not equal facts and that facts are not facts because of the love they inspire?

I believe that we should most definitely consider the option of degrading values that give people meaning in their lives. We degraded the values of those who believed quite strongly in slavery even though there were folks who valued that idea a great deal. And Nazism was also a source of enormous value in people's lives and it was degraded as well. Honoring and respecting everybody is not an option in this world. Questioning, criticizing and even degrading a value is most necessary, while promoting an unquestioned submission to a value (as you suggest) is an absolute catastrophe, and in many cases a crime against mankind.

I agree that Evolution, the Big Bang, Science and the exclusion of fantasy lands do not carry such an obvious message of love, but as human beings we are still able to give and receive love without it having to infringe on the truth of our origin and the meaning of life.

I hope you see the terrific importance in the criticizing of ideas no matter how much meaning it has in someone's life. Hurt feelings are a small price to pay for the overall accumulation of facts. This includes the hurt feelings of those who believe that worshipping another god equals eternal damnation, and that "eternal paradise" is reason enough to degrade the values of homosexuals.
