Here is the text from the comic:

Title: THEOLOGICAL GAME: RUNNING PROOFS OF GOD IN REVERSE

Panel 1: "LOOK AT EVERYTHING HAPPENING TODAY. NONE OF IT HAPPENS FOR ANY REASON. LOGICALLY, THAT’S THE PRODUCT OF NOTHING YESTERDAY HAPPENING FOR ANY REASON. IF WE FOLLOW THE CHAIN OF UNREASON, WE FIND THERE MUST NEVER HAVE BEEN A REASON FOR ANYTHING. THEREFORE THERE IS NO GOD."

Panel 2: "IF YOU WALK AROUND ON THE BEACH AND YOU FIND A WATCH, YOU INFER THAT SOMEONE MADE IT BECAUSE IT APPEARS INTRICATELY DESIGNED. WE’VE BEEN LOOKING AROUND THE UNIVERSE FOR AGES AND NONE OF IT MAKES ANY GODDAMNED SENSE. WE MUST CONCLUDE THAT THERE IS NO DESIGNER."

Panel 3: "IF THERE IS A GOD, HE IS THE GREATEST POSSIBLE BEING. BECAUSE EXISTENCE IS OBVIOUSLY WORSE THAN BEAUTIFUL ABSTRACTION, IT FOLLOWS THAT ANY BEING WOULD BE MADE BETTER BY NON-EXISTENCE. THEREFORE, IF THERE IS A GREATEST POSSIBLE BEING, HE MUST NOT EXIST."
