I have friends who are atheists. It’s such rubbish. There’s this mate of mine he said come back to my flat and I’ll make you a cup of tea and we’ll talk the whole thing through. So I go back with him and he puts the kettle on. “ The thing is, Frank the universe-it just happened. A big bang, an accident, no one made it happen. There’s no great designer, no thought went into it or planning, it just happened- do you get it?…. Anyway, that cup of tea won’t make itself”
I said, “Why not?”- Frank Skinner on atheists:
Some praise books for their girth, as though they were written to exercise our arms, not our wits. --Baltasar Gracian (1601-1658) _The Art of Worldly Wisdom_ [1647], Maxim 27
