I Hate God – Here’s Why
Why is pleasure always fleeting but pain is often chronic?
The Buddha said that the root of suffering was attachment to this world, and that it was necessary to become unattached to this world in order to rise above it.
The Buddha can blow me.
I think things are a lot simpler. I believe that God does exist, but He is a sick and twisted motherfucker. In essence God is Satan and the World we know is a plain of Hell. There is a kind and loving God, but He is powerless in the face of the Evil that permeates the Cosmos. Omniscient? Perhaps. Omnipotent? Hardly.
Suffering is the norm. Bad happenings are so commonplace it’s pointless to list them. Yes much suffering in the World is caused by humans, but much of it is not. There are people freezing to death in Kashmir today and will die before Humanity’s warmed the planet enough to save them.
What if I am right, and Satan is in control? What then? What chance do we have against Him? The same as an ant crawling around at the feet of a kid holding a magnifying class, that’s what.

There used to be on the BBC radio in the forties and fifties, [it might still be running for all I know] a programme called Brains Trust in which a panel of professor types would answer questions from listeners. One of the panel was Professor Joad who became famous for prefacing his thoughts with, “It all depends what you mean by….......”

Mark Hodgson:
When ignorant people dabble in theology, this is what comes of it; ignorant theology. People are the source of all their own suffering. We have free will. We can straighten things out, or, we can fuck things up: It is our choice. How does that old saying go? We can resist anything except temptation. Nobody forces us to smoke crack, shoot heroin, shoot our neighbors, fuck our neighbors wife, etc; we do that on our own. God certainly doesn’t force us to. Quite the opposite actually, God campaigns against these things but we [in our wisdom] ignore Him, and then [in our cowardice and dishonesty] blame Him when doing these things turns our lives to shit. Free will is a two edged sword; without it we are mere robots, with it we ae frequently total loser assholes…..go figure.

“What if I am right and satan is in control?”

The human ability to imagine in the hands of an idiot is lika a bulldozer being driven by a four year old.
Nothing good will come of it.

I have been realising this as well… it is allmost no doubt that satan is god… god is satan… the torment and absolute evil that I have seen is just constant, yet the pleasures that seem to arise and the goodness is so brief (and usually this is just for an evil greater evil cause in the ‘not to distant future’)...
Sure, you can pray so much and you might brainwash yourself a bit from the daily happenings and burn of a few sins through the process of karma, but evil is just SO STRONG, it is just SO STRONG… look at cosmos around this earth, its all DARK.. why isnt it LIGHT… thats because EVIL IS STRONGER apparently…
Sure there are little dots of light in the dark space that sorrounds our world, and thats how brief pleasure seems to be a DOT compared to the vast magnitude of dARKNESS sorrounding those little stars of light..
There were some very important things that I wanted in this life and god just shoveled shit my way… it was so friggen hard… but I was gallant in the face of evil..
Yes god appears to be SATAN.
Wait I dont even think there is a god, just DARKNESS.
