Letter to God

    Dear God,

   You don't know me. And for 40 plus years I have disavowed you. I don't care about that.

   But seems to me, you got a job to do and you ain't doing it too good. I know, who the hell am I? It doesnt take a Supreme Being to see how fucked up this Earth has become. Everytime I think we might be getting better ... that notion is destroyed by the malevolence of my 'fellow' man. I just figure you must have been too busy to notice. Consider this your notice.

  Terri Schiavo. Some asshole judge thinks he has the power to take a daughter away from her Mom and Dad. Even though they have been the only love that poor girl has had in 15 years. You must have missed that.

   Jessica Lundsford. Sweetest lil cupcake this side of heaven ... HEAVEN?  Hell, it shown right through her eyes. And then some sick dirty bastard takes her goodness from us like he was taking out the garbage. I guess you missed that too huh?

   Laci and Conner Peterson. A soon to be Mom murdered on the eve of what some say, is YOUR son's birthday. WTF? And then the monster that did it gets to hang out for the next 25 years catching up on his reading. Listen hear Mr Omnipotence ... you are not paying attention.

   What are you waiting for? It's TIME!!!  End it God damn it!!! The experiment failed and it's time to break it down and try again. Admit it ... you blew it. Now ... be done with it!!!.

   Thanking you in advance, me

I'm just imagining God's response...

Dear Steel,

You think I don't know the pain of losing a child? How would you like to be in the position of KNOWING you could save your Only Begotten Son, but that doing so would result in condemning the rest of the world to hell?

I'd have done it too... condemned you all to Hell, IF My Son had asked.

But He didn't ask... He said MY will be done.

And MY WILL was that mankind be free to choose right or wrong. And face the consequences thereof.

And I'd fire back ... Yo, DUDE ... it is TIME.
What more proof do you need?
Admit your mistake and try again.
Just because you are The Supreme Being ...
doesn't mean you can't make Supreme Mistakes.
That would be US.

I have a different thought on the answer the supreme being might give, if he/she/it were ever so inclined:

"I know you suffer. That is what makes you beautiful. You cannot imagine the scope of creation.

Be patient.

It has not failed. It's only just beginning. You are all so young, there is time enough to get it right."

That is, anyway, what I imagine a supreme being would have to think of this universe. I can't bring myself to believe in a God capable of creating the universe that is also petty enough to create hell, so I have to diverge there. If there is a God, I imagine it would be rather difficult for him to explain himself to us, but this is my guess as to what he's up to...again, IF there is such a being.

[Steel]

I have run out of patience. If there is a God ...
he should regroup. This experiment has failed despite
his best efforts.

God is like a bad cop, he's never around when you need him!!!!
