Maybe I should Re-Think Things...

Just had an argument with a friend over whether god cares about humans or not, where at the end she got offended and decided never to talk to me again...

That's when I messaged another friend (Himura_Kenshin, for those of you who know him) and asked him the same thing

What followed was this pretty wierd conversation-

Me: Hey, religious question- Do you think God cares about humans?

HK- Actually, I'm an Atheist, did you forget?

Me: Ah...well...I guess I did, but assuming there is a God, what do you think?

HK- I don't think he/she/ really cares. If he/she did George Bush wouldn't be alive and Saddam wouldn't be dead...

Me: Yeah, that's what...what? Saddam...Hussein?

HK: Yeah, him...great statesman, did a lot for Women in the country and stood up to the American Invaders.

Me: Wasn't he like...a mass murdering dictator of some sort, you know, gassing villages with nerve gas, so the people wouldn't think of rebelling and stuff...

HK: VX Gas was never found! it was all false propoganda...

Me: Didn't National Geographic get those pics of scar faced villagers?

HK: Ever heard of Photoshop? -_-

Me: Um...not so probable back in 91...

...It's around this time when I start thinking, 'when the only guy on your side thinks Saddam Hussein is the bomb, maybe there need to be a few changes in your philosophy...'

Is There a Priest in the House?

On my way to class last week, I noticed two men distributing flyers on topics such as 'Is there a God', and 'Death is not the End' and such like. You know the type, spreading religious goodwill and that sorta thing. Members of a Christian organization, they were, and I admire their bravery...

Especially when nowadays they might get shot up for something like that...

Which makes me wonder how much attention God is really paying to us. And why doesn't He step in when people use Him as an excuse to go out and kill people...

Religion has ended up doing as much harm, as good...
