Talking to god...

Talking to god (http://www.fullmoon.nu/articles/art.php?id=tal)

A story I came across recently. I found it to be an interesting read, and thought others here might like to read it too. Despite the title, it's not very religious at all. (I searched the forums and didn't find this, so hopefully it hasn't been posted before.)

Enjoy.

nice article.....



Man ‘Why me? Why pick on an atheist of all people? Why are you telling me all this? And why Now?’

God ‘Why You? Because can accept my existence without your ego caving in and grovelling like a naughty child. '

'Can you seriously imagine how the Pope would react to the reality of my existence?! If he really understood how badly wrong he and his church have been, how much of the pain and suffering you mentioned earlier has been caused by his religion, I suspect he'd have an instant coronary! Or can you picture what it would be like if I appeared "live" simultaneously on half a dozen tele-evangelist propaganda shows. Pat Robertson would wet himself if he actually understood who he was talking to.

Conversely, your interest is purely academic. You've never swallowed the fairy tale but you've remained open to the possibility of a more advanced life form which could acquire godlike powers. You’ve correctly guessed that godhood is the destiny of life. You have shown you can and do cope with the concept. It seemed reasonable to confirm your suspicions and let you do what you will with that information.
