The Necessity of Atheistic Impotence

“You want to rage, but there is no object for your anger. There is no wall to punch. Because above you and them is ‘only sky.’ You want to rail against God, but He is not there. But that means He didn’t do it. So who did? There is no who. Only sky above us and only dirt below. In short, you have no right to exhibit the slightest bit of indignation over ‘the neglect’ that is being shown to these particular end products of mindless evolution. There is no neglect. Nature eats her own and will do so until every last sun has gone out. Deal with it” (Letter From a Christian Citizen, p. 53).
