"Question with boldness even the existance of a god;
because, if there be one, he must more approve of the
homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear"
Thomas Jefferson 1787
I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation,
whose purposes are modeled after our own--
a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human fraility.
Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body,
although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotism.
