For the damn pleasure of it!

همیشه وقتی به چیزی فکر می‌کنم یا نیاز دارم خودش پیدا می شود:
"God, in short, is every bit as gloriously pointless as Ditchkins [Dawkins and Hitchens] tells us he is. He is a kind of perpetual critique of instrumental reason. John C. Lennox writes in God’s Undertaker that some scientists and philosophers think we should not ask after the reason for the universe because, according to them, there isn’t one. In this, however, they are unwittingly at one with theologians. If we are God’s creatures, it is in the first place because, like him, we exist (or should exist) purely for the pleasure of it."
Terry Eagleton Reason, Faith, and Revolution Reflections on the God Debate, 2009, p.10
