What is sublime about catholicism is its perduring ability to
absorb with love and forgiveness those thinkers who dare
defy it. Rather those who think defiance of mundane
authority is a certain way to garner attention, believing,
though, in their hearts, the mind's eventual obedience to
highest authority is assured by solitary death's portal
into the one faith.

Defiance is blessed, renewal of faith gone fallow, absolute
defiance is a childish conceit and shall be ever beloved
for regenerating freedom.

A greater freedom cannot be conceived than atheism,
it is by god's grace.

The desire to be god, to be without god, is to aspire
sublime imitation of god, child's play of forever being
childish, absolute responsibility for what is, what
can be.

This is not to say that mundane trappings of catholicism,
the rigamarole, the castes, the contempt of others,
the saccharine rituals, the amassing of wealth, the
predation of innocents, the promulgation of bad faith
theology, are to be forgiven, not at all. That regal
theism, those believers in privilege for all-knowing
catholics, those evil-doing devils, deserve absolute
destruction, again and again driving heartstakes,
forever.
