An atheist becomes God

I find this amusing

So... Peter Molyneux has been running this game called Curiosity. Players chipped away at a 'Block' until they got to the center... Only one person would get that center hit and win but it was unknown what they would win. Flash forward a bit and we have our winner as well as what the prize is.

The prize:

Blah, blah, blah... They get a small cut of the profits from his nex game (a God game... Yes, you are surprised, heh) and some input into the design AND... They get to be the God of the Gods... I'm a bit fuzzy on how that will play out but it could be interesting.

To the winner:

The best parts to me

"How long have you been playing Curiosity? How often did you play?

I downloaded the game only about an hour before I won, so I feel a little bad."

&

"Given the nature of Godus and how you'll be shaping it, can you tell us about your own religious philosophies?

Well I'm an atheist myself but I'm okay with everyone believing what they want to believe."

I for one, welcome my new Atheist overlord.
