#god of suffering

[religion-is-a-mental-illness]

"If a god cannot eliminate or relieve suffering, that god is both useless and worthless.

Or nonexistent."

If it won't, then that god is evil.

I feel like I should add a gore tw even though it’s not showing much… maybe so.

Made this in honor of Valentine’s Day!!

A cynical bitch indeed, I am.

I hate how acknowledging unfairness in the world is seen as "childish". Maybe children are right. I don't think you should be proud of the fact that you've become complacent with the state of your miserable existence and took on this loser "it is what it is" mentality. Things can be better.

percy being told that you burn what you'll miss the most and immediately burning his blue jelly beans to talk to his mom. i don't think anyone understands how much of a big deal this is to me

why is religious Christmas imagery all so joyful and pleasant? where is the inherent horror of the birth of Christ? A mother is handed her newborn child, wailing and innocent. Her hands come away sticky. Red. Simply by giving her son life she has already killed him. He is doomed from the beginning. Her love will not save him from suffering. Because the thing cradled in her arms is not a baby, it is a sacrifice: born amongst the other bleating animals whose blood will one day be spilled in the name of what demands it. the night is silent with anticipation. Mary, did you know? That your womb was also a grave?

“People are inherently terrible” no!!! Have you ever seen a child wait for their friend while they tie their shoelaces? Have you ever known someone who would bring hurt squirrels and rabbits and mice to the nearest vet just so it doesn’t suffer? Have you seen someone grieve? Have you ever read something that hit your heart like a freight train? Have you looked at the stars and felt an unexplainable joy? Have you ever baked bread? Have you shared a meal with a friend? Have you not seen it? All the love? All the good? I know it’s hard to see sometimes, I know there’s pain everywhere. But look, there’s a child helping another up after a hard fall. Look, there’s someone giving their umbrella to a stranger. Look, there’s someone admiring the spring flowers. Look, there’s good, there’s good, there’s good. Look!!!!

"Why should I respect a capricious, mean-minded, stupid God who creates a world that is so full of injustice and pain?"

-- Stephen Fry

"Because he'll send you to be tortured in a pit of fire for eternity if you don't" isn't the vindication you think it is.

(WARNING: GORE AND LANGUAGE)

Decided to post the first chapter of my comic cause why not?

In the future, a lot of rough subjects no one wants to talk about will be addressed within it. I’m excited. Hope these platforms let me keep it on!!

There’s also gonna be a bunch of gay shit. Most of my characters are just not straight ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanatos’s sprite being so intimidating with his scythe and his scowl and his pale eyes is actually so funny since it turns out he’s the most ridiculous character in the game and says shit like “what are we” and “i miss not feeling anything” and he gives you his little toy mouse that he’s just had in his pocket since he was a kid and his own mother confirms that he’s a category 1 yearner
