About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.

It's His own fault for bothering with all that divine hiddenness silliness.

If you could prove “God” existed that’d be lame and boring. The uncertainty is what makes it fun.

The uncertainty is what's caused dozens of wars and oppression. Without which, history lessons would be really boring. This is much better.

Ya know, I'm gonna say that humans are capable of pretty horrific shit without needing to get caught in the weeds like that. Yeah, religions don't have a great track record, but neither do most institutions above a certain age. We really like turning people who aren't with us into people who are against us, and we're biologically programed to then be able to hurt them. Tribes fought and this that wouldn't, died. So, it's basically in all of us on some level.

But before you think we're cruel or horrible, it's not that. We're mostly the result of evolution's whims, like most things on earth. Humans usually innovate not by thinking things through but by trying whatever comes first and winging it from there. It's why the scientific method was such a breakthrough. We didn't get better at finding better ideas, we just wrote down and shared the stupid stuff we did. Then, it was just a matter of time before people iterated enough to find truly beautiful things.

It's why the internet should be a beautiful thing, but assholes want to own it and that means it had to eat up our every waking moment.
