desert with no end
Are you thirsty? Do you see wavering pools of acrid water?
Yes. I thirst. No, I see only the sweat, mixed with tears.
Are you hungry? Do you wish you had a carcass to gnaw?
Yes. I hunger. No, I wish I would die and feel nothing.
Are you alone? Has your god abandoned you here?
I am not alone. He will deliver me, even unto death.
prison heavily guarded
Are you afraid? Do you long for waiting days to end?
Yes. I fear. No, I long only for my freedom.
Are you cold? Do the iron chains and bars and gates freeze you?
Yes. I shiver. No, my dead, captive soul is ice in my chest.
Are you alone? Has your god abandoned you here?
I am not alone. He will deliver me, even unto death.
mistake committed over and over
Are you ashamed? Do you wish you had never been born?
Yes. I blush. No, I wish for the impossibility of atonement.
Are you broken? Do you want the punishment to stop?
Yes. I bleed. No, I want to earn redemption.
Are you alone? Has your god abandoned you here?
I am not alone. He will deliver me, even unto death.
storm on open sea
Are you frightened? Do you feel your heart tearing your ribcage?
Yes. I scream. No, my heart is faint within me.
Are you lost? Do you wish the rain and waves would drown you?
Yes. I wander. No, I want to sail to harbor in calm waters.
Are you alone? Has your god abandoned you here?
I am not alone. He will deliver me, even unto death.

An Atheist may
An Atheist may seem like they've simply given up on life.
But in truth, they are the ones who are living life to the fullest.
They do not think that there is an after life
where we can frolic and dance for eternity.
They believe that the life they live right now, is the only
life they have, and the only life they will ever have.
They treasure life more then anyone.
They care about others not because they were
told that it is the right thing to do, but because
they feel that it is the right thing to do.
Literature
The Atheist's Bible
And the Lord said, "Well, to be quite honest, I think you're all rather delusional."

I am an atheist
That doesn't mean I believe in evolution
But I do
It doesn't mean I trust evidence
But I do
It doesnt mean I am rational
But I am
It doesn't mean I lack morals
But I... Hah, you thought I really did, didn't you

Not really sure what the psalm is saying, but here's my interpretation. Inaccurate, yes, but it means more to me now. Read the real thing and let me know what you think. Any criticism welcome.

This is really something. Should I read it this way or should I read it that. I can read it like the bible one verse at a time one per day. Base my days events based on my interpretation of that verse. Heck maybe I could start my one religion based on this entry. YeeeHaaaaaaaaa I have a plan.
