You know how most people have a hard time relating to God? <br />After all, he's invisible and keeps his mouth zipped, so they have <br />nothing to go on. Man, it must have been amazing back in the <br />biblical days when you almost couldn't get him to shut up. He <br />was always ordering everyone around and proclaiming stuff. <br />Kind of like Idi Amin, only in a good way. <br /> <br />I wonder what made him clam up. Have you ever thought about <br />that? I mean, he never says a peep. Some people say he speaks to <br />them, but they're just hallucinating or trying to con everyone. <br /> <br />If God really wants people to believe in him and worship him and <br />pray to him and all that, then I think he should appear to the world <br />as a revelation in the form of something that everyone is familiar with: <br />Elvis! Sure, why not? <br /> <br />If nothing else, it will be a new dawn for biblical merchandising. <br />Instead of the old crappy 'Jesus is Lord' bumper stickers, you'll start <br />seeing stuff like, 'I'm All Shook Up...for Jesus' or 'Don't Be Cruel to <br />a heart that's true...for Jesus.' More merchandising means more money <br />in the bank of the churches, which means more money available to <br />be spent on recruitment and that means more people joining churches. <br />And that's a good thing, wouldn't you agree? <br /> <br />So if God has a head on his shoulders, he'll stop lolling around and get <br />to work preparing himself for an Elvis visitation.<br /><br />Professor Poetry Hound<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/viva-las-vegas/
