Wonderful Sunita! There is a god because the dog didn't bite you? Then, 
there mustn't be god for folks who get bit. I must not have a god. My 
neighbors, too. And what about the dog who got rabies? Does he also not have 
a god. Just because you're saved some suffering, there is god? And then, 
stigmatic have god? Miracles for god, god for miracles... isn't life enough 
of a miracle without god and these petty "saved me from the dog" miracles, 
and those petty, however, powerful feelings? 


Indeed, one has god because one wants it. I don't have to go into stupid 
shit like, that was a domesticated animal and wouldn't bite you even if it 
chased you to hell. Indeed, the poor bastard wouldn't even clear the gates 
of hell, as it's been told that, hell isn't where you should go. I won't 
also tell you that the sound of your falling or the abruptness of your 
slowing scared it off. Or that it was just his whim. But a dog's whim is 
being used to prove there is god? Even if the point you're making is just to 
yourself, that you want people to relate to it says enough. 


Nah, I won't interfere with your world which has God. Be happy with and in 
it. As Mubs said, eventually, we are all doomed (ha! ha! ha!).

PS: If there is God, it's got the babelfish. Thank you Douglas Adams! 

PPS: One reason to believe there isn't God is that Douglas Adams died when 
he was only 50, the last year.
