Stephen Fry calls God an ‘evil, capricious, monstrous maniac’, by Henry McDonald (Guardian)
Stephen Fry has denounced God as “utterly evil, capricious and monstrous”, if he were to exist.
The comedian’s attack on the notion of a deity will be heard on an Irish religious affairs programme on Sunday night.
New Albany is a state of mind … but whose? Since 2004, we’ve been observing the contemporary scene in this slowly awakening old river town. If it’s true that a pre-digital stopped clock is right twice a day, when will New Albany learn to tell time?

Non-existence mocked by extant comedian.
To me, Stephen Fry's words are utterly non-controversial. In fact, they're nonsensical, and he knows it. The denunciation hinges on this: "If he were to exist." No existence, nothing controversial. For an unbeliever, it's all superfluous ... but the vigorous stirring of pots never goes out of fashion.
