THIS IS NOT A JOKE.
So in december my dad asked me to read the hitchikers guide. Before this I was catholic but not too devout. About halfway through the book I started to seiousley question god. By the end I was an athiest. No depression or religion switching involved, this book converted me.
Good job dad, that was the best book I will ever read. Maybe one of the best works of literature our species has ever produced.
I came out to my mother, who is apparantley an athiest. ALOT about her makes sense now. Her mother and my grandmother is an athiest too. We talked about the universe, mike pence and the sort. She thought my dad suggesting the guide was hilarious.
This is how elon musk became an athiest too apparantley.
If I ever become president I will be sworn in on the hitchikers guide to the galaxy. It encompasses my beliefs like a bible.

It's why I keep coming back here despite the never ending shitposts. I really can't take discussions on other sites seriously knowing that the person I'm arguing with might number Harry Potter amongst their favorite books or never have read the Greeks.

Wow, it's like you're in a cool club and that sucker of your dad was left behind! ha!

This is unironically one of the worst posts I've ever seen on this website. Congratulations.

the first book is terrible, but it gets even worse, this book sucks and you should keep your way out of it
>Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?
what is literature, or at least douglas adams shitty book, but to seeing fairies on a garden? i fucking hate this book so much i'd rather read harry potter
>>
>>9719263
Awesome that you have a cool-ass dad that recommended Adams to you, but stop identifying. Being atheist doesn't make you cool. Reading an awesome book might, if you weren't such an asshole about it.

Enjoy a lifetime of failing to fill that void.

I honestly can't tell if this is from r/books or if it's original content.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

this thread makes me uncomfortable

what kind of bait

I'm really glad my pubescent verysmartness was ignited by the Bible rather than this reddit shit. At least when I grew out of it I had the foundations for reading good lit. Enjoy the r/books reading list OP.

apparently you haven't quite exited that phase yet

The Hitchhikers guide is what turned me off to reading for ten years.
So, I knew it was bad, but I didn't know it was so bad it could make you disbelieve in God and goodness.
Damn.

Don't worry. When you read Gene Wolfe you will repent and be Catholic again. It is the spiral we take to reach something higher.

Unironically, this is the best fucking bait I've read
