1.	As game theory clearly shows, the irreducibly complex nature of the universe indicates probabilistic fine-tuning at the quantum level and renders God logically necessary.
2.	Therefore, God exists.

Consider this
Christians worship a dead Jew on a stick.

Atheist on the Blog

The more I look at religion, the more I dislike it and what it does to the world and its people. This blog will help you understand why religion is something you shouldn't accept as a good thing in our lives. Above all, don't respect religious beliefs when their practitioners refuse to respect you.

Hindu God (and his monkey army) in court

15 September 2007

You couldn't make this stuff up. You really really need religion to generate stories like this one.

The Indian government has withdrawn a controversial report submitted in court earlier this week which questioned the existence of the Hindu god Ram.
The report was presented to the Supreme Court on Wednesday in connection with a case against a proposed shipping canal project between India and Sri Lanka.
Hindu hardliners say the project will destroy what they say is a bridge built by Ram and his army of monkeys.

Read that again. People, real people, living in the 21st century, believe that a bridge was built by the god Ram and his army of monkeys. An army of fucking monkeys. And they actually believe this shit, and have forced the government of India, the most populous democracy in the world, to back down over it.

Worried about the adverse reaction from the majority Hindu population of the country, the Congress Party-led government has now done a U-turn and withdrawn the statement submitted in court.

Even Christianity doesn't have stories as stupid as this one. That is, if you forget about Noah's Ark. And Jonah and the whale. Oh and the talking snake... okay I give up. They're all just as bad as each other.
