I highly recommend you guys read a book by Richard Dawkins "The God Delusion" and please tell me if you still believe in the concept of "A" God instead of seeing with your own eyes the beautiful inter connectivity between us and nature and beyond
Heres a video I believe all athiests should watch and even more religious people should watch as well

Would some "god " strike that piano player dead.
Wouldn't Jesus have a wound on his wrist. Not his hand.
I think most christians/athiests miss the whole point of this god debate. No one knows what or who god is, or even if there is one. That's not what matters. What matters is that we accept eachother for what we believe because we are wasting valuable time on the earth debating something that is inevitable. We'll see who is right, if any of us are, in the end. Until then, let's just accept and love eachother as we are.
"The fact that any modern, educated person can be "Christian" after we have learned about the corrupt process of the canonization of the Christian bible is insane to me."
Amen Jason, lol.
So many opinions out there, explore for yourself: http://www.allbeliefs.com
I grew up Catholic and was born again with common sense. Really not that hard to see if you question everything.
Choose whatever "make believe" makes you happy man. Period. When your heart stops and your brain shuts off, you'll enjoy a nice little DMT trip consisting of all the fanatasies you've ever imagined in your finite life cycle. The collective psychic conscience of humanity is "God"...at least in my not so humble opinion ;) See ya'll in hell!
