I wonder at the idea of prayer. that people should worship their creator. That we have something to be grateful for. do prisoners thank their jailors for their captivity?* uparwallah, if he exists, is perverse and vile. who gave us an infinite capacity for pain. who lets us suffer from birth to death. that we owe him anything is false. he is not to be thanked or praised. he is our enemy, he is a bastard

but then i look around me. what is humanity like? selfish, vindictive, malevolent. in the pain and loss of others, we seek to find our pleasure and satisfaction. And I think. At least one thing the priest says is true.

God created man in his own image.
