Religion As A Test

[atotalstranger]

I've come to three conclusions about god:

1) There is no god.

2) If there is a god, he set up religion as a test. Not a test like christians, etc. imagine - the exact opposite. God would have to be using it as a filter to weed out morons stupid enough to have blind faith in something as nonsensical as religion. So, in essence, belief in god will prevent you from getting to hang out with god. After all, who do you think a god would want to hang out with - a bunch of emtpy-headed, simple-minded morons who are incapable of critical thought and intelligent discussion - or a group of people who are intelligent enough to question the universe and engage in meaningful conversation?

3) See Number 1.

Yeah, I've had that thought too. If it's true (99% sure it ain't), it'd be humorous, to say the least.

Kind of like the old Groucho Marx line, "I would never join a club that would have me as a member"?
