Notes


    gollark: I don't think they should be supporting entirely avoidable eternal torture.
    gollark: If the Islamic god does exist approximately as described, I would want a better one.
    gollark: You don't. God DOES. They are omnipotent. Definitionally, they can do and can know anything.
    gollark: (this is a different argument to "does said god actually exist" obviously, but the evidence there seems to be bad too)
    gollark: I don't think they should be all-judging, and I don't think eternal torture is right ever.
