New ICLRPD (of sorts)
This god entity set this up deliberately.[...] What a wanker!


However, this probably needs to stay in this forum...could be toxic to a wider audience.

New Toxic meme?
That makes me think of an RPG supplement titled 'Transhuman Space: Toxic Memes'. I don't think the idea that the biblical god is a wanker according to his own PR should be contained. I say this meme could liberate the gullible out there, not destroy them. Let's see the countervailing ideas. Let's see this god appear on daytime TV explaining why ignorance and torture are good for us.
Matthew Greet


Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?

New Much rather see Him on Meet the Press...
(For you Brits and other non-colonials, "Meet the Press" is a Sunday talking heads show where Big High Muckymucks sit across the table from somebody who is ostensibly a Journalist, and said Journalist tosses softball questions allowing said Muckymuck to completely ignore those questions and instead pontificate on His Very Important Thoughts on Nothing Important, or start laying the groundwork for Muckymuck's next election campaign. I hope that clears things up a bit.)

You're typing on a device that stores trillions of pieces of data and makes billions of computations per second with the ability to grab data on almost anything from around the world in milliseconds, using electricity transmitted from hundreds of kilometers through wires on towers dozens of meters tall connected to megastructures that do things like burn coal as fast as entire trains can pull into the yard, or spin in the wind with blades the size of jumbo jets, or the like, which were delivered to their location by vehicles with computer-timed engines burning a fuel that was pumped up halfway around the world from up to half a dozen kilometers underground and locked into complex strata (through wells drilled by diamond-lined bores that can be remote-control steered as they go), shipped around the world in tankers with volumes the size of large city blocks and the height of apartment complexes, run through complex chemical processes in unimaginable quantities, distributed nationwide and sold to you at a corner store for $1.80 a gallon, which you then pay for with a little piece of microchipped plastic, if not a smartphone, which does all of the aforementioned computer stuff but in a box the size of your hand that tolerates getting beaten up in your pocket all day.

But technology never seems to advance...
