Dear Believer
by Dan Barker Dear Believer, — You asked me to consider Christianity as the answer for my life. I have done that. I consider it untrue, repugnant, and harmful. You expect me to believe Jesus was born of a virgin impregnated by a ghost? Do you believe all the crazy tales of ancient religions? Julius Caesar was reportedly born of a virgin; Roman historian Seutonius said Augustus bodily rose to heaven when he died; and Buddha was supposedly born speaking. You don’t believe all that, do you?

"I AM GOD. YOU LITTLE HUMAN PISS ANTS ON EARTH BETTER ACCEPT ME OR I WILL TAKE MY GIANT MAGNIFYING GLASS AND SET YOU ON FIRE WITH THE SUN'S RAYS".
I am now a big fan of Pat Condell!
Pat...more power to you!
