Right, so, I'm quite an opinionated person(as is probably indicated by my having a blog in the first place). Therefore we can safely assume that this particular subject was bound to come up sooner or later, yes folks, it's the 'religion' blog.
As a child of say ten-ish, I was completely and undoubtedly of the opinion that Eric Cantona was God. The man as he was on the field is immortal. Now though I see him selling himself out to sky television... I mean sky? Does he really need the money that badly? And if he does, there is only one conclusion that I can draw, Eric Cantona is not The Almighty. This does sadly mean that Cantona's arrogance and bravado actually makes him a little bit of a twat, but more worryingly, if we follow this logic to it's innevitable conclusion, I think we can safely assume that there is no God.
Now I know that this is a tired old subject, I dont believe, why do you believe?/I do believe, why dont you? I'd like to say right now that I don't care. I don't. You can believe whatever the hell you want, but(and this bit is important) leave me alone.
Stop accosting me on the street telling me the word of Jesus, do not knock on my door and offer me a copy of 'The Watchtower.' I don't want to hear about Allah, Buddha, Krishna or Obi-wan Kenobi. I'm happy, and if you decide to attribute this to ignorance, let me be ignorant. I'm not trying to convert you to atheism. So what if I believe that the only time good things come from the sky are when I'm playing 'Call of Duty'?
I've never believed in any form of higher power, ask my mum, she'll tell you. It's not my fault, it's just not my thing but if it's yours, good luck to you - I kind of hope you're right. Peace and Love.

The bit where you say that Cantona isn't God upset me :(. But then I remembered about Keano :)
All gods sell out in the end. Even Jesus asked why he was forsaken; surely you can forgive Cantona a few blasts in the face from Murdoch?
