Chris Ruegg replied to Sentient Biped's discussion If Only White Men Had Voted...

"I don't hate god because I can't hate that which I do not believe exists; however, if god did exist, I would hate him because he is petty, vain, jealous, vengeful and downright evil. I would hate him because I am better than him. Not…"

Chris Ruegg replied to Jedi Wanderer's discussion How do you answer the argument that god exists from the supposed perfection of the universe?
"Perfect, in what way?
The observation that life/the universe exists is only indicative of those things alone. What would a universe look like that does not contain a God, and how do you get from "a God exists" to "a Christian God…"
