One God further

Thought for the thinking..
“An Atheist is just somebody who feels about Yahweh the way any decent Christian feels about Thor, or Bayal, or the Golden Calf.
As has been said before, we are all atheists about most of the Gods that humanity has ever believed in.
Some of us just go one God further…”
Richard Dawkins, 2002 TED talk

For the record I’m not sure whether I’m an atheist, agnostic or anything else really…
I do know, however, that I abhor the atrocities that are, and have been throughout history, carried out in the name of ‘organised religion’ - this alone is enough reason, in my view, to look at these matters seriously and critically.
