Good point: Christians need their God, and Jehovah needs them.

As for me, wanting is not the same thing as neeeding. As I have rejected the notion, I clearly don't need a god. I take credit for my own achievements and accept the blame for my own faults. I don't need anyone to thank or to blame, and I am no better or wose than other god-fearing people.

(Q. Why are people with faith said to be
god-fearing when they worship a god of love?)


But it would be nice if there were a kind and benevolent deity out there really looking after our interests.
