The Evil God Challenge

There are three fundamental questions for anyone advocating Brexit:

1. What, precisely, are the significant and tangible benefits of leaving the EU?
2. What damage to the UK and its citizens is an acceptable price to pay for those benefits?
3. Which ruling of the ECJ is most persuasive of the need to leave its jurisdiction?

it is much easier in fact to defend the notion of an Evil God than a Good God. Animal suffering, disease, natural disasters - all mentioned by the video - point to such a being. While human "wickedness" is of course an important feature of life, it is much harder to define than these other evils, and it anyway must be much less important in the grand scheme of suffering than pain not caused by cruel or callous human beings
