Watching Again, Eh God?

OR YOU CAN LOSE YOUR HEAD.
Foley’s Pastor says “There are no words to describe this kind of inhumanity.” Yes Pastor, there are words, and those words are simply “Where Was Your God?” The answer is “Watching”.  Who needs a god like that?
You see the problem here is that the God of Foley was also the God of the killer. So having a conflict of interest, I guess he/she decided to sit this one out and watch from the sidelines.
The news is full of horror every day. And people of faith, good people, write it off as if they really don’t believe that their god is willing/able/interested in doing anything. So we hear “pray for the families.” If it didn’t help to pray for the victim , why would it help to ask for relief for the families? So maybe it goes like this:
“God, we beseech thee to spare the life of (name here). He/she is a godly person and a good person who doesn’t deserve to be beheaded.” The beheading goes ahead as planned so:
“God, since in your merciful wisdom you chose to not save (name here) from beheading, we beseech you to bless the family of (name here) and relieve their pain and suffering.” The pain and suffering doesn't stop so:
“God, you son-of-a-bitch, where are you?” No answer, so:
Got any booze or drugs?

  1. If we are talking about the same god that was the reason for the crusades, the great flood, ordered stoning of women to death for no apparent reason, black death.... I guess, you will be better off with a drink....
