Atheists, wouldn't you like your own personal Jesus?

Someone to hear your prayers, someone who cares? When you're all alone by the telephone, lift up the receiver; I'll make you a believer.

Reach out and touch faith.

    No, I wouldn't like my own Jesus or the megalomaniac god that comes with him. I'm an atheist. That means that I don't believe in any god or gods. Why is this such a hard concept to explain. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT ANY GOD EXISTS IN THE ENTIRETY OF THE UNIVERSE. I DO NOT RELY ON FAITH, I RELY ON KNOWLEDGE, AND SEEK TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE. Scientifically, I know that there will always be something more to learn. I don't pretend, as you apparently do, to know the truth of the universe.

    Yes, I could sure use a personal Jesus right now, or a magic genie, or even a lucky horseshoe, but, alas, I am not superstitious and only have faith in reality.

    I don't need Jesus,I have friends and family and even if I lose those I'm not weak enough to want somebody to "care" about me I'm not a child I can handle my own.

    That's why I got married.

    Prayers = wishes, and wishes presuppose you aren't going to take action to get what you want. I am not a wishful thinker.
