God

God is an absentee landlord whose lodgers scheme to take over the premises.

". . . God suffers from a kind of divine amnesia that made him lose the purpose of His Creation. I suspect that God tried to do too much in too short an eternity."

"So, you are going to refresh his memory?"

There was a young man who said, "God,
Now doesn't it seem to you odd
That this great chestnut tree
Simply ceases to be
When there's no one about in the quad?"

"It really is not at all odd:
I'm always about in the quad
And the great chestnut tree
Never ceases to be
In the mind of, yours faithfully, God."

-- Balliol College, Oxford

God is dead and I want his job
Godfather of the Cosmic Mob

All of us are driven by greed
All of us are enslaved by need

And the only way to be free of this curse
is to own the - Universe

God is dead and I want his job
God is dead and I want his job
