God has cured me. And I never should have gone to the dentist that was a bad idea of mine, not his.


As comforting as it may be for us to entomb ourselves within this sort of mind set, it is undeniably false.

No god cured you of your sickness, you and/or your body (and other external variables) did.

No god permitted Joseph Stalin to exterminate thousands upon thousands of people. Joseph Stalin did.

No god permitted all the holocausts throughout the world to take place, people did.

If it were otherwise, then what on Earth does that say about all the atrocities which happen in the world? All the butchered innocents of the world - are you daring to imply that some god has helped you but abandoned all these people? Unfortunate as it may be, things happen because they happen. It's just that simple.

And if the day came when your Christian god were proven real and that he's truly manipulating fate exactly as you imply (helping you but not helping others), that is the day I will lay all my devotion in the name of Lucifer. It may sound horrific for me to say so, but to me there is nothing more horrific than the offensive belief one's god has favored them and deliberately permitted the suffering and deaths of others (others who may even follow the same deity as you.)

Most events in life can be attributed to sheer randomness. It's not a comforting thought but it's not as insulting as insinuating our deity helps one person while blatantly permitting the torment of others.
