Reply #127: If there was a God, why would *HE* care what we believe or don't.

There are an estimated 10000000000000000000000 (1 billion to the 10th power) stars in the universe. More than all the grains of sand on earth.

What kind of "God" would spend his time fretting about the doings, thoughts, beliefs, of every individual of one species on a speck of a planet circling a speck of a star in a mediocre galaxy stuck somewhere between billions of other other galaxies in a universe which may well be one of trillions of other universes?

Not to mention that the universe is between 8-11 billion years old and we've been around, in our present form, have been screwing things up for between 200-250,000 years. What was "God" doing for the previous 8 or 10 billion years before he started fretting about our sex lives and telling the preachers to ask us for dough?

The only thing that makes us believe that there is some deity watching our every move, reading our minds, listening to our conversations, and keeping tally of all that, is our massive egos that tells us that we are somehow special.
