I don’t need a god to tell me not to kill, not to go to war, not to lie to to make money, not to rape or abuse women, not to hurt children, not to place my culture above all others, not to think of my country as better than all others, not to demand obedience from others or one that gives me an excuse to ignore suffering.
I reject a god that tells me to murder animals and defecate their remains every morning. That provides a religion that forgives or excuses any of the above. I reject such an idea of a deity because I was educated by a poet.
