Reminds me of Hitchens when he said that he was more than happy for believers to have their toys and to play with them at home and hug them and share them with others who could come round to play with the toys.I dont have an issue with people believing. I have a problem.when what is in their made up books are expected to be adhered to by everyone else. Anyone can sit and talk about the great flood that didnt happen or the universe being created in 6 days and all the other fucking garbage in all of them. Fine, crack on. But, keep it to yourselves Please.
Qur'an 14:82 - Moses said: "Were you to disbelieve, you and all those who live on earth, indeed, God is free of need and praiseworthy"
To be forced to love someone who we fear .. the essence of sado massochism. A master and slave relationship!The thing that gets me about religion is who ever the so called God is they are so insecure that they demand you worship them.

"That's absolutely fine .. but they are not to make me play with these toys. I will not play with the toys"
A form of celestial domestic violence.To be forced to love someone who we fear .. the essence of sado massochism. A master and slave relationship!
All about catching him on a good day. I''ll play safe and go with Sundays.A form of celestial domestic violence.
God is basically the Trevor Jordache of the cosmos
Yes the very man and was considered to be a great orator and perhaps the most prominent opposer of religious doctrine in the 21st century.Is that the Christopher Hitchens who couldn’t stop telling people that he was anti religion. He must have hated people inflicting their views on him
Yes yes, I know who he was. Just hoping he didn't force people to listen to his views, would have been quite ironic what with all these religious types turning up at his door trying to make him believe in God.Yes the very man and was considered to be a great orator and perhaps the most prominent opposer of religious doctrine in the 21st century.
There's perhaps a subtle but significant distinction to be drawn. I don't remember Hitch warning people they'd burn in everlasting hell in the event they didn't subscribe to his views.Yes yes, I know who he was.

To be fair that is the main takeaway from all religious texts…There's perhaps a subtle but significant distinction to be drawn. I don't remember Hitch warning people they'd burn in everlasting hell in the event they didn't subscribe to his views.
