How good it is that God above has never gone on strike,

Because he was not treated fair in things he didn't like,

If only once he had given up and said, "That's it, I'm through!"

"I've had enough of those on earth, so This is what I'll do."

"I'll give my orders to the sun--cut off the heat supply!"

"And to the moon give no more light, and run the oceans dry."

"Then just to make things really tough, and put the pressure on,"

"Turn off the vital oxygen 'til every breath is gone!"

You know he would be justified, if fairness was the game,

For no one has been more abused, met with more disdain than God,

And yet he carries on, supplying you and me.

With all the favors of His grace, and everything for free.

Men say they want a better deal, and so on strike they go.

But what a deal we've given God to whom all things we owe.

We don't care whom we hurt, to gain the things we like,

But what a mess we'd all be in, if God should go on strike.

A very happy new year to you also.


God did not put me on this earth to be a doormat or a lackey for other people. I will not accept the unacceptable! Odd how the middle classes make God in their own image!wink

some say he works in mysterious ways
But sometimes he never works at all

The question itself is interesting but irrelevant. There's no empirical nor theoretical proof that God would exist, but there's an endless amount of contradictory evidence.

One would think that a post about God would bring praise instead of the anti----- people. ALl I can say is, You say things once you will hear it again. I praise Adonai.

If that worked both ways then fine but it doesnt - believers would gladly gag us Atheists if they could........ the cork is out of that particular historical bottleneck well and truly......
