I like that! By far, a much more believable take on “god”, for, if such a thing exists, giving a shit about us, and us as individuals no less, has never entered its mind.
Thanks, my friend. Now buy the book and help save some animals in Brazil 🙂 Click on the cover photo up top on the right. The print version is easier on the eye.
Thanks Victoria. Now, your task as our resident neurological expert is to ascertain the defensive mechanisms humans have invented and deployed so as to “not see” the truth of this world and our Creator.
Cheers SB. It’s an uncomfortable truth, but a truth nonetheless. The advocates for a supreme Creator were right… They just had the identity of the Creator backwards.
Oh dear, you’re going to be invited trouble there, Larry 🙂 Of course, it’ll come in handy when someone ever approaches you and say’s they’d like to talk to you about the Lord. You can now tell them you know the “truth” and would like to return the favour 😉
yes those are my thoughts. a vigorous discussion occasionally brings understanding. But I have found many have to be spoon fed, a small bite at a time, before they can fully enjoy the nourishment being provided.
Hey Larry, good to see you! This was the original ending of the book. I took it out at the very, very last moment, thinking a first-person monologue distracted from the “academic” feel of the rest of the work. You should read the full thing. It’s actually quite awkward and had me more than just a little disturbed at moments.
nice monologue from a deistic god. an ‘apology’ or explanation if you like. I enjoyed reading and seeing it this am. please post more often if you can.

Hi Mike (Brandy), this was actually the original ending to the book I just released. Icon is up on the top right. It’s a parody of 20th Century natural theology works. If you’re up for a giggle, and a few awkward moments, give it a read. The print version is easier on the eye 🙂
I saw where you’d said you had a book coming out over on Vi’s post. Love the original ending. It’s a good teaser for the book even if it’s been removed.
Does this mean you’ll be posting here more regularly? *fingers crossed*
I will indeed! Hopefully I get some good formal rebuttals to the thesis, and then we can see where this circus goes. Now, go buy the book and help save a dog (or a cat) in Brazil 🙂
Seems redundant effort, me ‘like’ing this … you knew, didn’t you, even before the Creation; which makes anything I choose to do (especially spontaneously)—
—bugger. I think I’ll go chase my tail for a while … but you knew that too … tell me, will I ever catch it?
I hope it makes you laugh, and cringe a little. Not really an easy read, and certainly not something to give to the girls to take home with them to show dad. But then again…. if you’re feeling particularly mischievous one day…. 😉
Thank you! Hey, as I was out walking the dogs earlier i realised i really should have included the note somewhere that human babies cry when they’re born, but they should giggle (First Feeling) if this world was, in fact, good. That will have to go into the next edition, with the appropriate credit 🙂
SOM, so wonderful to see you! I was beginning to think you’d left us. You might have missed the whole point of this post though. You see, I’m now of the opinion there is, in fact, a Creator. You were right all along, my strange and baffling compatriot. The Creator exists! It’s just not the Creator you’d hoped for. Buy the book, hit the cover icon up top on the right, and you’ll see what i mean.
Ha, a book by a blogger buddy. It’s been bought and sent to my kindle so that it can lull me to sleep when I read the poetry you have prepared for me. Congrats John!
Your apologetic god reminds me of a well known song by a french bard Francis Cabrel. He wrote about God who came back to see his creation, the one where he taught people to share and planted enough flowers for every girl. It goes all haywire and his last words are: ” God who sits on the edge of the world, weeps as he sees how it turned out” .
Oh, I like that! Do bear in mind as you read, it’s a parody of 20th Century natural theology works, although apart from a rather odd Author’s Note at the beginning, I don’t let on anywhere that its a joke. It can be uncomfortable to read… In a pleasant kind of way 🙂
Looking forward to reading the book John ! It’s nice that the animals will benefit from it. It’s also nice the animals don’t have to do mental gyrations about God. 🙂 But maybe they do have to concerning their caregivers. LOL
To be read with a stiff tongue in the cheek, Ken. Hope you enjoy it. It does, at least, explain why we have an invisible Creator… something your typical apologist can’t do.
