So I've been following the Jodi Arias case relatively closely and just noticed this gem on the wikipedia page about the death of Travis Alexander:

ABC News conducted a jailhouse interview with Arias in which she said, "I didn’t hurt Travis. I would never hurt Travis.... I would be shaking in my boots right now if I had to answer to God for such a heinous crime."


Just one more reason religion sickens me. People pulling the "God" card to try to prove their innocence in a crime. Reminds me of Ray Lewis.

Over Super Bowl weekend, CBS analyst Shannon Sharpe asked Lewis if he had a message for the families of the slain men.

“It’s simple,” Lewis said. “God has never made a mistake. That’s just who he is, you see. And if our system – it’s the sad thing about our system – if our system took the time to really investigate what happened 13 years ago, maybe they would have got to the bottom line truth. But the saddest thing ever was that a man looked me in my face and told me, ‘We know you didn’t do this, but you’re going down for it anyway.’ To the family, if you knew, if you really knew the way God works, he don’t use people who commits anything like that for his glory. No way. It’s the total opposite.”


If there is anything I can say for certainty about atheism it is that there is no "well I'm an atheist so obviously I didn't do it" card.

So you're overtly judgmental and willing to let the words of criminals and football players dictate your opinions and regard for other people? In that case, it is no loss that you disregard those who believe differently.

I said that's one more reason religion sickens me, does that mean I have disdain to all of my family and friends (or anyone really) who are religious? Of course not, but I still don't respect their religion or anyone who uses their religion to manipulate others.

Does this mean atheists aren't manipulative? Of course not, we are just as capable but at least we don't have to worry about sounding like a complete lunatic talking trying to gain credibility with our faith.
