"Top blog/Renato Obeid's World/Today's pick: This rambling weblog is worth reading not so much for its satirical posts but more for its insight into the minutiae of life in Lebanon, including the etiquette of road accidents and how to hire a taxi.”

There’s no such thing as an atheist. An atheist is just someone who doesn’t know or doesn’t accept that they're a believer. I said this to an atheist and she replied ‘’don’t insult my beliefs’’. I replied that non-believing cannot be regarded as a belief She then proceeded to carry on for God knows how long about her atheism. Literally much ado about nothing How can someone take so long to describe nothing? The funny thing is that she probably thinks that she’s the first person to spout this sophomoric nonsense The term atheist is a misnomer anyway, they believe in a God all right but that ‘’god’’ is themselves. There are some people who are so full of themselves, so self-absorbed that they can hardly believe in God because it would be a conflict of interest, polytheism.
Anyway, regardless of whether or not there is a God, ‘’we have to act as if there is a God’’ as Pope Benedict told Oriana Fallaci.
