a hopeful atheist

in the true spirit of procrastination, i give you tracy's positions on the existence of god(s):

Con—
1. god is just some figment of human imagination trying to give an otherwise meaningless existence a purpose (this life may suck, but there is a next), to explain anything that goes wrong (too bad my house just burned down and my entire family died, but it's all a part of god's plan), and to justify acting orderly (you must be good to your parents, not steal, and not murder, or you won't get into heaven). hell, by this logic, religion could be a conspiracy of the elite to discourage revolutions and maintain the status quo by conditioning the masses to reject dissent.

2. physics and biology.

3. as soon as i turn on the tv to watch the yankees up by 8, the red sox score 5.

Pro—
1. what's the point of living if there's nothing to be gained from life?

2. 13 hours of pain can produce 7 lbs 13 oz of perfection.

3. dy/dx(sinx) = cosx.
