“What do I see in the God of that infamous sect if not an inconsistent and barbarous being, today the creator of a world of destruction he repents of tomorrow; what do I see there but a frail being forever unable to bring man to heel and force him to bend a knee.

What a weak fellow, this God!” IfsKnowsMenWorldGodTodayForceReligiousKnow HowForeverTomorrowCreaturesWeakDestructionFellowsCreatorKneesMeritHeelsTormentRepentSectsInconsistentFrailInfamous Author:Marquis de Sade
