Keep the Faith (away from me)

Death.

I think about it constantly. My son went through it, so it’s not too good for me either I guess. Lately, I’ve done a lot of research on death and the afterlife, consciousness, religion, etc. In a strange way, it’s like I’m preparing myself for it. I don’t know when it’ll come, but it’s never far from my thoughts.

If you think about an afterlife, then the next obvious thought would be concerning God. Let me just say this: I’ll claim to be agnostic, but truthfully I don’t believe in anything but the randomness of the universe. Randy didn’t live as long as he did because he was a “miracle”. He lived as long as he did without divine intervention. God was nowhere in it. Randy’s healing was never completed…

I’m not questioning anyone else’s beliefs but my own. And from what I’ve seen, physics, science, and complete randomness seem to make the most sense. God does nothing about evil but turn his divine back to it, he does nothing but promise us eternal life if we live in eternal slavery, and you face eternal punishment for basically EVERYTHING. Does this sound like a fair and just God? Better to not believe in one at all than to believe in one that doesn’t do a damn thing to help his “children” in the times of their greatest need.

Losing Randy really opened my eyes. I see so much clearly how religion traumatizes children and causes most of the world’s problems. Look around and tell me how much you see God in a world that’s on fire…
