Reminds me of an old .sig file I used to use:
"Sure, I believe in God. I believe in a God who shaped the Universe, created the human race, and influences our lives even today. I believe in a God who hates us, who created us for His own sadistic amusement, and labors every moment to fill our lives with pain, loss, ruin and despair. I believe that the joys we do have are those which God, in his finite and stunted imagination, hasn't figured out how to destroy just yet.
"I'm led to believe that this is not a popular view."
