Except the fear of an imaginary monster with an imaginary torture chamber, and the sadomasochistic narcissism of simultaneously thinking you’re literal dirt and have a hotline to the creator of the universe.

I’m sure the worms your god invented that eat a child’s eye from the inside out probably agree with you. Maybe not the child, though, as they go blind, screaming in pain.

I love how when people watch a David Attenborough or Discovery Planet type thing, you know where you see the absolute phenomenal majesty and complexity and bewildering beauty of nature and you stare at it and then and somebody next to you goes, “And how can you say there is no God? Look at that.”

And then five minutes later you’re looking at the lifecycle of a parasitic worm whose job is to bury itself in the eyeball of a little lamb and eat the eyeball from inside while the lamb dies in horrible agony and then you turn to them and say, “Yeah, where is your God now?”

You can’t just say there is a God because the world is beautiful. You have to account for bone cancer in children. You have to account for the fact that almost all animals in the wild live under stress with not enough to eat and will die violent and bloody deaths. There is not any way that you can just choose the nice bits and say that means there is a God and ignore the true fact of what nature is.

The only kind of person who regards the universe as “perfect” is the kind of person who knows nothing about it at all.

As beautifully demonstrated by you skipping over all the everything in between atoms and galaxies.

And these are just the flaws in the human body.

If you knew anything at all about science or specifically the evolution of the human species, you’d know that perceiving beauty is an evolutionary advantageous trait. Clear water, green grass, green trees, blue skies… these are all indicators of health and safety in our environment. We have evolved to be attracted to them because they signal wellbeing.

But you don’t. So, instead, magical, undetectable Santa-like creatures are responsible.

There are classes where you can go to school to fill in your ignorance with sound knowledge. Instead of filling them in with silly, self-discrediting fables.

Or, if you’re too embarrassed to enrol in the high school classes you missed - and if you’re over 20, you probably should be - then you can learn about science, including evolution, online.

No one need ever know.

You don’t have to continue to suffer through life this way. Help is available; there is a way out, and I believe even you can do it, @sparklingdaz​
