“I’ve met God across his long walnut desk with his diplomas hanging on the wall behind him, and God asks me, “Why?”
Why did I cause so much pain?
Didn’t I realize that each of us is a sacred, unique snowflake of special unique specialness?
Can’t I see how we’re all manifestations of love?
I look at God behind his desk, taking notes on a pad, but God’s got this all wrong.
We are not special.
We are not crap or trash, either.
We just are.
We just are, and what happens just happens.
And God says, “No, that’s not right.”
Yeah. Well. Whatever. You can’t teach God anything.”

Enjoyed your well-written spoof. Smiled and chuckled. But i must say it helps to feel we are sacred, unique and special -especially when we encounter those who are negative toward us. So I say: it works to know we deserve to feel good about ourselves...no original sin. On the other hand, when you look at humanity as a whole - with wars, violence, abusiveness, mistreatment of animals, plunder of the planet, greed and all that crap,,one has to wonder.
