5 Objections to Modern-Day Atheism

About 300 hundred years ago, there was a little boy, but he grew up. This man's name was Jicardy, and he was known for his long greasy hair that he never washed. Well it wasn't long before he cut off his mullet, and the people of the old Georgia town of the thirteen colonies were very happy that he did so.

 

He lived on, and he became an exceptional horse-shoe player until he pulled eight-teen ligaments in his elbow when he tried to toss the world's largest horse shoe weighing in at 43.21 lbs. He became very lonely, and he lost a lot of his friends.

 

While he stayed in his crap-covered hut in the middle of Atlanta, a man came to see him with good news. The man told him that he would soon become a very rich Jicardy with a lot of friends. Well the next day Jicardy blew up from spontanious human explosion. His body parts were spread over a 1/4 mile radius.

oh look at me.  i'm fucking

oh look at me.  i'm fucking cryptic.  i write off-topic shit nobody understands, nor do i care if they understand or not, so i must be a genius.

"I have never felt comfortable around people who talk about their feelings for Jesus, or any other deity for that matter, because they are usually none too bright. . . . Or maybe 'stupid' is a better way of saying it; but I have never seen much point in getting heavy with either stupid people or Jesus freaks, just as long as they don't bother me. In a world as weird and cruel as this one we have made for ourselves, I figure anybody who can find peace and personal happiness without ripping off somebody else deserves to be left alone. They will not inherit the earth, but then neither will I. . . . And I have learned to live, as it were, with the idea that I will never find peace and happiness, either. But as long as I know there's a pretty good chance I can get my hands on either one of them every once in a while, I do the best I can between high spots."

Just so you guys know, this

Just so you guys know, this website was linked to on CE, a board on GameFAQs, so I guess we'll be getting a lot of trolls now.

I get it. Jicardy is the atheist and we're supposed to learn why atheism is bad, its a parable. If he kept his mullet then the guy wouldn't want to come see him to tell him that he's going to be rich and therefore something would have happened differently (objection 1: Atheists give into peer pressure)  If he had prayed to god for his arm to heal he could have gone back to work and not live in a hut (objection 2: Atheists would rather live in a hut than admit the existence of god). If he had taken the man metaphorically then he might have gone to the church and prayed to become rich in godlyness (objection 3: Atheists don't pray to god so he blows you up). Also, if he had prayed to god specifically not to blow him up then god wouldn't have done it (objection 4: Atheists blow up because they don't specifically ask him not to). Atheists are unsanitary. A Christian is always clean, they don't litter an entire quarter mile radius (objection 5: Atheists are messy)

Here's a summary:

objection 1: Atheists give into peer pressure

objection 2: Atheists would rather live in a hut than admit the existence of god

objection 3: Atheists don't pray to god so he blows you up

objection 4: Atheists blow up because they don't specifically ask him not to

objection 5: Atheists are messy

 I'm a 45 year old male,

 I'm a 45 year old male, and I live alone. Well, not completely alone, I have a cat named Binkers. I was sitting on my couch reading Jitterbug Perfume, drinking my favorite scotch Laphroaig, and Binkers cam up next to me and sat on my lap. I was crushed because the day before was Binkers' birthday and I had forgotten to make him a cake. With age, comes mental fog I suppose. I was at work late so I didn't have time to bake, so today I had decided to make him something special. He was on my lap, so still sitting on the couch I leaned and pulled my special out of the preheated oven to return to my seat and present what was leaned over and grabbed from my preheated oven to present. Binkers look at me and smiled a smile that encouraged enough space to accept my preheated oven special from my seat leaned from the oven. Binkers was now smiling. "My leaned preheated oven special gift from a couch leaned to preheated oven," Binkers knew all along.

It makes more sense than Jesus

Though I'm not sure that's difficult.

As an objection to atheism, it fails. As a writer, you fail.
