Initially,
Logic Eats Babies was a blog dedicated to taking down arguments for the existence of God, but you can only do that for so long, really, because it gets very repetitive and predictable. Here, ready? Let's do it right now:
- "What if you're wrong? You don't lose anything by believing in God, but you'll burn forever if you're wrong. I think I'll take my chances."
Yeah, yeah. If you're wrong about the Flying Spaghetti Monster, your strippers in the afterlife will have VD and your beer will be stale. If you're wrong about the existence of the deity I just invented right now — let's call him Jim — you'll burn in a Hell worse than the Christian Hell, and you'll get a better Heaven than the Christian one if you believe in Jim. What if
you're wrong?
- "I don't know how life could've started on Earth, or how the universe could've come into existence, or how life as complex as human beings could exist, if God wasn't responsible for it."
And you think "a Magic Man in the Sky did it" is a more reasonable answer than an honest "I don't know"?
Well, anyway, there you go. You can only respond to those two arguments so many times before going crazy and so, after two diligent years of counter-apologetics,
Logic Eats Babies became what it should've been to start with — the blog of a 24-year-old physics major, about whatever he feels like writing about at the time.
