This is where I’m calling out God specifically. How bout it pal? Did you use up all your ideas, or is the vault full of unreleased hits just waiting to be unleashed into the vastness of existence?

Did you think to even make yourself into a god? It’d be wild if the creator of all things hadn’t even remembered to gift themselves the power to create or rule over the things you’ve created and rule over. You’d just be like the hole inside a volcano. Built an island full of inhabitants but don’t even get to claim the stone walls or magma below. Just the unthinking orifice.

I’ve read some books attributed to you. Orifice work for sure. Don’t worry, I’ve never believed in the divine guidance of those works. Divine inspiration, sure, guidance? Nah.

It’s funny how many people could take offense to even thinking about these things. I know atheists that would rather go to church and cringe through a sermon than to listen to my out-loud thoughts on wondering how people believe in something so obviously problematic.

Not that you don’t exist. It’s just I have questions about some assumptions my fellow mammals have created. Unlike the initial question I raised. There are significantly more creation stories than the ones breathed into by my ancestors. The problem with humans, is we give greater value to old ideas than new ones. It’s why we prefer the first of most products. Harvard, Coca-Cola, Monotheistic books loaded with contradictions.

I’d prefer new tails of a religion. Not in like the go see it at the cinema kind of way but in a, here folks, worship this tale of tales. It will make you a better person. You’d be a better person to write a book than read a book. Both types of people can be like the volcanic orifice but one spews a new platform to stand on and the other takes ideas with them into the abyss.

So here’s what I want. If there was a chance, that there are more uncreated wonders than created wonders, I’d like to see something positively shocking for once in my life. Doesn’t have to be now but you know, at one point. I feel everyone typically gets to see just enough horrors to know that the world is a shockingly dangerous and indifferent place but so rarely are we shocked by something beneficial.

Maybe it’s just we take everything for granted. All the amazing things we already have. Maybe our God is only a god of entropy and the only options are really fast decay or moderately slow decay and that’s really all they check for in prayers. If people want faster or slower entropy.

People probably aren’t even thinking about that possibility.

If true, it would make a load of difference to not only pray for slower entropy but to pray correctly. In the unique way that this god requires to receive and respond.

Burnt offerings always were the best prayers. Burn the goat so that the gods can devour the smoke and the rest of us get mutton. Vegan options available in 2024.

Anyways, I think that’s it. We need to know. Someone should write a book.

At some point.
