Da Vinci Code

I have just finished the "Da Vinci Code". I am now going to go to my dear "Angels and Demons" by the oh-so-great Dan Brown. He has made my new list of favourite authors, joining the ranks of Tolkien, Rowling, C.S Lewis, and Phillip Pullman.

The computer has already given me a migrane. I won't put up with it anymore.

Oh, yeah, btw, can't believe I didn't pick up the "Da Vinci Code" sooner.

But seriously, for a moment: because of the "Da Vinci Code", and His Dark Materials,
I've just realized how much atheism plays a role in my life. Ok, kidding. But seriously, though, it seems quite appealing to me.

For one thing, other religions have a very restricted lifestyle. Some of the devout actually go as far as restricting the way they live. Like the Harry Poter scandal. Sheesh. Could've just become Amish, it's way easier. From the way I look at things, being atheist helps in a way where you sort of feel like you don't have to feel the wrath of the Almighty in the Afterlife, and burn in hell for "borrowing" your sister's hairbrush and never giving it back when you were sixteen. But it does raise a lot of questions, though. From the time we learn what death means, we begin obsessing about it. And we have good reason to. When we die, will it really be the end? Or will we brun in hell/have the best of your eternal life in heaven? I, sadly, believe that death is the end. No rebirth/reincarnation... It just sounds strange.

And guess where all this came from? My French test. I was supposed to find texts to explain why people believe in "god". Not God, as in Jehovah "God", but the Almighty in general. I have found very few info. Though I did find a lot of webpages dreated by atheists and devout evangelinists. Tough. I am sick of askjeeves.

And because of my slight migrane, I've decided to search around: I've found this really cool site full of humourous and not-so-humourous atheist quotes. Damn thing kept on freezing on me.

Take for example:
God is Love.
Love is blind.
Ray Charles is blind,
Therefore Ray Charles is God. ROTFL!

And screw my French test.
