I Change My Mind - There Must Be a God

It took some doing, but I am now basking in that glorious light from above. How could I have been so wrong for so long?

The spirit has descended upon me. Divine revelations are streaming forth. The sublime complexity of our world plainly could not have evolved from nothingness. I now know that a supreme intellectual Designer makes all this happen. What else but an all-powerful God could could wreak such resplendent carnage? Man, in all his mediocrity simply does not possess the wherewithal to realize such calamities as raging war, world-wide famine, pervasive poverty and rampant disease.

What else but an omnipotent God could mastermind the near collapse of an entire world economy in just a few short days? What else but a transcendent God would have the supreme audacity to institutionalize evil and hatred? What else but a God could move people to the grand negativities of suicide and murder all in the name of religious righteousness?

In short, without God the world is inexplicably fucked up. With God, it all becomes clear. It takes the supreme to achieve the supreme. Only a supremely capable God could achieve such supremely unimaginable levels of misery and misfortune as those which we now enjoy. Man simply does not possess the level of moral vacuity required to achieve such astonishing ruin on his own. Surely his inspiration has a divine source.

That I was so adamant about there not being a heavenly master lording over our wondrous universe shows just how stubborn and short-sighted I have been for so long. Thank you, God, for showing me the light! And thank you for saving my soul.
