MANILA, Philippines (AP) — The Philippine president, who recently sparked outrage for calling God stupid, has courted new controversy in his largely Roman Catholic country by saying he will resign if anybody can prove that God exists. President Rodrigo Duterte, who has had a thorny relationship with the church, questioned anew in a speech late Friday some of the basic tenets of the Catholic faith, including the concept of original sin, which he said taints even innocent infants and can only be removed through baptism in a church for a fee. “Where is the logic of God there?” Duterte asked in a speech at the opening of a science and technology event in southern Davao city. The 73-year-old leader said that if there’s “one single witness” who can prove, perhaps with a picture or a selfie that a human was “able to talk and to see God,” he will immediately resign. Duterte, however, suggested that there must be a God or a supreme being that prevents billions of stars and celestial bodies from colliding in a frequency that could have long threatened the human race. Last week, he was slammed, including by some of his political allies, for calling God “stupid” in another speech, with one Catholic bishop calling him a “psychopath.” https://www.apnews.com/49b58d96334b45a6b5fc007839845058/Duterte-vows-to-resign-if-anybody-can-prove-God-exists What an odd character.

I thought God was a metaphor for love, and Jesus was a metaphor for acceptance or whatevs. So maybe a volunteer team of gay bi-racial couples should go and bang?

Well, that's the problem, you can't prove God is real, which is the primary reason why it's one of the most retarded ideas out there
Yeah well I can't prove that there's a version of me somewhere in the multiverse who's figured out how to get a big dick but I'll be damned if I can't hope and pray to meet him someday in the mean time.
That doesn't make it any more real. That's the point of faith.
I wasn't literally trying to say anything either which way, I just really wanted to make that joke.
