A Christmas message from Ricky Gervais: Why I'm an Atheist
Ricky Gervais has written a very clear, logical piece explaining the reasons why he doesn't believe in God(s) over at The Wall Street Journal's Speakeasy blog:
Why don’t I believe in God? No, no no, why do YOU believe in God? Surely the burden of proof is on the believer. You started all this. If I came up to you and said, “Why don’t you believe I can fly?” You’d say, “Why would I?” I’d reply, “Because it’s a matter of faith.” If I then said, “Prove I can’t fly. Prove I can’t fly see, see, you can’t prove it can you?” You’d probably either walk away, call security or throw me out of the window and shout, ‘’F—ing fly then you lunatic.”
