Thread Name: BS: Why God loves atheists and non-believers
Subject: BS: Why God loves atheists and non-believers
1. They don't bother Him/Her with prayers, requests, and entreaties all the time. A little peace and quiet now and then is much appreciated by the Allmighty!

2. They don't blame God for all those unfortunate happenings, like when a hurricane comes or when a tree falls on the family dog.

3. They don't complain to God about all the things going wrong in their lives. Oh, they complain, mind you....boy, do they ever complain! But not to God. They complain to their significant others and their relatives instead. ;-)

4. They don't ask God for advice when God would rather focus on something far more interesting than their petty little problems!

5. They don't try to enlist God's aid in their bloodthirsty national activities, like war. Instead they do it for all the good old-fashioned reasons, like greed, hatred, pride, profit, ambition, imperialism, zenophobia, and personal gain.

6. They don't pester God with a lot of undesired hero worship, Hosannas, and all that. It can get annoying after awhile. You want to just go off somewhere quiet and be completely anonymous for a change.

7. Last but not least...God loves everybody. Even Woody Allen. So why would God not love atheists? God is without prejudice. This is such a rare quality that it can fairly be said to be a divine one.

The fact that none of this even matters to an atheist is the icing on the cake, as it were. It's so perfect that God may even have planned it that way.
