“I can't believe in the God of my Fathers. If there is one Mind which understands all things, it will comprehend me in my unbelief. I don't know whose hand hung Hesperus in the sky, and fixed the Dog Star, and scattered the shining dust of Heaven, and fired the sun, and froze the darkness between the lonely worlds that spin in space.” IfsKnowsWorldMindBelieveI CanHandsFatherHeavenStarsSpaceDarknessSunSkyAtheismDogAll ThingsLonelyShiningPositive AtheismDustFixedHungUnbeliefLonely World Author:Gerald Kersh
