Reality defeats Theology every time. Presence beats Omnipresence anytime.

Worst sidekick ever!

but the bible is proof he exists

And while riding in that trunk, bleeding to death, Human-Man became an atheist.

You can wait an awful long time waiting for God-man to show up. Dude’s just got too much on his plate and needs to scale back his commitments.

All dognappers drive 7-Series beemers.

No worries, Human. You’ll get your reward in heaven!

But if you mention the wrong type of people getting married and He’ll be RIGHT THERE!

GreggW, i don’t think you get God-Man then. Try reading more of the series, it’s pretty clear.

GreggW is quite correct. In all the God-man episodes I have had the pleasure of reading, all I see is satire of human perspectives on religion and God. Never any argument directly made favoring atheism. Such a strip would not be nearly as funny as mocking the foolishness of human religious beliefs anyway.

there are no foxes in an atheist’s hole

The assertion that the alpha and omega of the All in All is a patriarchal, transcendent personality creator god, omnipotent and omnipresent, though outside of nature, has all the tangible heft of a sparrow fart in a hurricane.*

*An average sized sparrow, whose diet has not been altered dramatically in the previous 48 hour period, nor has any super-sparrow gastric powers.

@AtherActually the Bible is fascinating reading as history; in it is mentioned (by another name: Asasuerus) Xerxes (Ezra 4:6) and Darius and so forth, but nary a mention of the Peloponnesian War— it didn’t affect the Jews. There’s also an Assyrian(?) tablet telling of an Israeli king paying tribute. Check out “Asimov’s Guide To The Bible” for a readable secular breakdown of the historical Bible.

Reminds me vividly of Mark Twain’s Letters From The Earth, especially the description of the humans’ creation of a Deity (in their own image) with all the attributes of a spoiled child…

I can’t understand why he never talks to me.

It can’t be that it’s all that difficult for him. Does he just not like me? I was told he loves all of us. I’m so confused.

As Mark Twain once remarked, Faith is believing things you know are not true.

C’mon, Human-Man must know that this is just a test of his faith.
