I am most certainly NOT a Christian. The question of Chicken and egg is obvious -
the egg came first, mutation was the culprit. As for God, all human conceptions of
a god are man created. This also seems obvious. Thus far, i have seen no evidence
of a god or godlike creature, at least as described in any religion. God is simply
an animalistic fear response to the unknown. The more you believe, the more
animalistic and closer to barbarianism you are. In my humble - Atheistic opinion.
As someone bereft of the emotions of "fear" or "belief", I see the concept of a
god as no big mystery at all, just a handicap to those who are overrun with fear
or belief.

Sodom
I am the Light, someone get me a shade

Just a note: If i ever talk about god as a legitimate entity, I am joking. I have
never considered the concept of a god entity to be legitimate. I used to be a very
common poster here, but have backed off over the last few months. Dont worry, as
you get to know, you will learn to hate me.
