Thread Name: BS: The Atheist Delusion
Subject: RE: BS: The Atheist Delusion
Yes my personal belief is all great music Christian or otherwise is a gift.

Nothing personal, but this attitude that emanates from religious belief absolutely stinks. It ranks as such alongside those ludicrous harvest thanksgiving ceremonies and "grace before meals"-type prayers, where deluded people pray to a totally indolent God to thank him, not for anything he's actually done, but for the products of the blood, sweat and tears of human endeavour (those we can just tax). I note that the thanksgiving prayers don't include mention of the Staphylococcus food-poisoning bugs or the myriad pests and diseases that ravage those wonderful, God-given crops, or for the spoilage organisms that ruin the produce and cause hungry gaps. Never mind gifts. God is the prince of takers-away.
