Anyone who
has read more than one or two of my blogs probably knows that I don’t believe
in a god or angles or devils or tinker bell - even if all the children clap.
I have, all
my life, been surrounded by Christians that want to proselytize and legislate
their religious beliefs.
I do not
argue with these people because their belief is stronger than logic.
But when
asked why I don’t believe, I usually sight: women.
Christians
claim a God of all power, all knowing and all seeing; an infallible designer of
the earth, the stars, the galaxies and the solar system.
And yet, any
man who has ever accompanied his wife to a gynecologist office realizes that
women’s plumbing systems have a real design problem. They
seem to have the same road dependability as a Yugo automobile.
Women are
plagued with painful periods, irregular periods, prenatal, postnatal, uterine
cancer, breast cancer, menopause, leaks, discharges, prolapses, rashes, dryness,
urinary tract infections, pain, sensitivity, and an infinite number of things
that I will probably never understand.
If an
automobile company put out a product that broke down that often their engineers
and design teams would be fired and the company would probably go bankrupt.
Don’t get me
wrong. I love women’s nether parts and
all the bells and whistles and accompaniments that go along to make The Total
Woman. But, my point is, that if there were actually a pluperfect, infallible God
– designer of the universe – It seems He
would have been able to do a better job for women.
The Yugo automobile that sold in the
1980’s was totally undependable. The
engines were known to explode, electrical systems regularly shorted out and
parts would fall off for no reason. Many
insurances companies refused to insure Yugos.
