I have evidence that God exists, and that he is a cruel trickster. This article was the clincher. If you don't eat anything for 2 to 4 days straight it helps your body rejuvenate itself. Apparently, fasting for a long time kills off some of your white blood cells which are replaced by better ones when you start eating again.
That goes right along with what we've always been told is the best way to stay healthy. "Eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetables and get lots of exercise." Why is it that humans can't stay healthy eating food that actually has flavor, like a good old bacon cheeseburger? Everybody knows that food dripping in fat and slathered in sugar tastes way better, but it's all bad for you. If celery is so good for us why don't we crave it? And why is it that exercise is best? Why isn't it better to just sit around and read or watch TV? Why is fasting a good way to rejuvenate the body instead of a nice buffet gorge every once in awhile?
Yep, it can't all be accidental. God must exist; and he's an asshole.
