Is there a God

By Peter Bowden - posted Friday, 27 March 2020


This is much higher than the Australian Bureau of Statistics figure.  Those reporting no religion increased noticeably from 19 per cent in 2006 to 30 per cent in 2016.

If the commentators to this On Line Opinion piece state which category they belong to, this writer promises to tally the results in a week, or by the 30th. response, and give the results in the 31st. comment.

One final proof:  If God does exist and is annoyed by this OLO opinion writer denying his existence, then He (She or It) is given permission to use the current Armageddon affliction to stop the writer in his tracks. If the thirty-first comment does not appear, then God does exist.

This is not an idle wager. Margaret Court’s church, which was founded by Court in 1995, believes she is safe from Corona virus. Full believers, it would appear, are safe.
