Now, about those books...
Wow, I just checked how much stuff I'm supposed to have written during the ages: several bibles, the Quran, the Torah, a blog on the web and a whole series of conversations with me. I've read it all. Some of it is wise, some of it is boring, some of it is silly, quite a lot is downright insane. And hardly anything is funny.
Most of these books seem to agree on only one point: That all the other books are rubbish.
For God's ... well ... my sake, you really are the most gullible of all my creations...
In order to clear up the matter once and for all and to avoid further confusion about what I did and did not say, write or order, I hereby demand that from now on the following disclaimer shall be added to all of 'my' books:
"This book is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places and incidents are products of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons or gods, living, immortal or dead, is entirely coincidental."
You will all agree that if I am the author, I can demand to include that disclaimer. And if I'm not, the disclaimer is even more true.

God Dog
People told me they don’t believe it's really me on that picture to the right. Some even hint at the possibility that this image might be a fake! These people wonder why I don't look human, complete with a grey beard.
Well, here are some major characteristics of me, God: I unconditionally love human beings, and yet very often do not understand what they are doing and why. I can get angry at men, but only for a brief moment and I am always able to forgive them, even after the most outrageous and dumb actions. I do not gather other members of my species and go to war.
Now look at these characteristics and compare them to the average human being. And then compare them to the characteristics of a dog. Do you still believe I created MEN according to my likeness?
