   nice article! But God needs to stop kvetching and get down here and make the violence stop. Also that picture is not God-that is some random white dude. I am as sick of seeing “Him” as I am of seeing Sarah Palin.

   For the win:

   “To be honest, there’s some contradictory stuff in there, okay?” God said. “So I can see how it could be pretty misleading. I admit it—My bad. I did My best to inspire them, but a lot of imperfect human agents have misinterpreted My message over the millennia. Frankly, much of the material that got in there is dogmatic, doctrinal bullshit. I turn My head for a second and, suddenly, all this stuff about homosexuality gets into Leviticus, and everybody thinks it’s God’s will to kill gays. It absolutely drives Me up the wall.”

   I also enjoyed God’s implicit endorsement of evolution.

   I have a pretty good relationship with God (or, as Mr. Carlin used to describe him, “the guy who lives in the clouds”).
   My problem is with his kid and his kid’s friends.

   givesgoodemail – Jesus is actually kinda neat as well. It’s those people who think they’re his friends.
