IT'S A FUNNY THING

I see hat my last post appealed to the old music and religious bloggers Fiddle & Diddle.





 I'm pleased to be of service but it's a funny thing when I, a confirmed* atheist get compared to either The Holy Spirit or to Satan. I must be doing something right - or wrong.

Robert has suggested that this blogging community is some sort of holy trinity not unlike his Holy Trinity I guess. He infers that I'm needed to make up the third as the Holy Spirit. 



Whether that's due to my experience in the liquor industry I'm not sure but it raises the question about the other two. To make up Robert's Holy Trinity we need God and his son Jesus. Who's god and who's Jesus then?





I guess that Richard has more gravitas along with the fact that he's a lot older and can appear quite grumpy at times. It's not a stretch of the imagination to see him smiting hordes, drowning civilisations and getting a thrill out of duping Adam so maybe he is god (the father).



Robert, with his prissy Christian and Catholic sermonising and going about loving everyone is Jesus (the son) I guess. The way he bangs on about religion it makes sense that people might 'get cross' with him.



Oh well, I'd better 'confirm' this post so that it's published.



















* Nothing to do with that silly Catholic ceremony of Confirmation:

Thanks Fiddle.



Where's Diddle?

I'm curious if "I, a confirmed* atheist" believes in cause and effect. We live in a universe that must either have a creator or be somehow infinite. If it's infinite then like an infinite number of moving railway carriages one has to ask why are they moving? The only explanation is that somewhere a steam engine is pushing them, a prime mover! In a Christian's universe God is that prime mover. He is the cause and the effect is that the carriages move. How does an atheist counter this?

I know you're just testing me. I know, you're last post was known as 'hat'.
My mistake.
