I think think that religious folks, church people, the Pope, etc... they should stop covering for God, and they should really tell us the truth... God probably hurt his back real bad right when he finished his creation, and he couldn't do a thing after that. He's been on strong painkillers ever since, and has no idea what the fuck is going on... Mysterious ways, my ass...

I agree with all your margin notes — but God is definitely a woman, so she hurt HER back :)

... jotting down my first margin note on this post... was just thinking... that copy of the Encyclopedia of Jewish Humor has gotta have more margin notes than the Talmud.
