are brainwashed into believing that there is a god. This god judges us every day and decides whether or not you get to go to heaven or hell. Well‚ I think that this is all bull s*** and lies. I don’t blame the people who raised me to believe in god‚ because they believe in this fictional character. All of this poses a question‚ is god real?
