First toast, and now, finally, diapers as a sign from God

In May, Katy Vasquez, a devout resident of Winter Park, FLA, posted on Facebook (and told Huffington Post in an interview) that she had just seen a "sign from God"--a cross--as a smudge in her infant's soiled diaper. "I prayed to God for a sign that everything would be okay," she gushed to the reporter. "It might not be the prettiest sign, but he put it where he knew I'd see it."

First Gerald Mayo sued Satan and now, an Israeli sued God

Aunidentified Israeli man recently petitioned Haifa Magistrate’s Court recently for a restraining order against God, claiming the Almighty has exhibited (quoting the Times of Israel article) “a seriously negative attitude toward him,” especially over the previous three years. 



 The judge rejected the petition "even though God was not present to argue against it (or at least His presence could not be detected"). [Times of Israel, 5-4-2016]

Poem: The Curtain

By Jack Brummet

 

1
There are pockets of sanity
Scattered among us

And light years between those
Shimmering Seas of Tranquility.

2
The puzzle we face
Is keeping the tiller

Aimed away from
The Sea of Madness.

3
The silver rain
Is drawn

Like a curtain
Between us and God.

One Big Error, or, is only seeing believing?

By Pablo Fanque, National Affairs Editor



Maybe the one big error we all make is to not believe what we haven't seen; this runs from the mites that live on our eyelashes all the way up to old God himself (and everything in between).  But seeing is not everything. We do--many of us, anyway--believe in things we can't see...like love.

Sure, we've seen these mites in photographs, but that's quite different from, say, anytime you blink, seeing a herd of cooties skittering from eyelash to eyelash.   Photographic evidence of God is quite scarce.

One bit of good news on the eyelash front is that mites are so efficient that they eat but have no "exit system" or, in short, they are not dropping a deuce in your eye.
