***WARNING*** This post is of a religious nature. If you do not believe what is typed below, please do not post negative comments. I respect your feelings enough to post this warning so please respect my wishes. Thank you!
“I have struggled all my life with a tormented and joyless relationship with God. Faith and lack of faith, punishment, grace, and rejection, all were real to me, all were imperative. My prayers stank of anguish, entreaty, trust, loathing, and despair. God spoke, God said nothing. . . . No one is safe from religious ideas and confessional phenomena. . . . We can fall victim to them when we least expect it. It's like Mao's flu, or being struck by lightning. . . . You were born without purpose, you live without meaning, living is its own meaning. When you die, you are extinguished. From being you will be transformed to non-being. A god does not necessarily dwell among our capricious atoms.”
If you know what famous hero said this please post up:)
