Best. Religion. Analogy. Ever.

Published by Dougal at 7:48 am under Humour, Religion

From Charlie Brooker’s latest column:

God/no God? No God. We’re all freelancers. Some of us may choose to sit in imaginary offices from time to time, pretending to receive memos from our made-up boss, or enjoying watercooler conversations about the loving/vengeful/forgiving nature of our fictional chief with our colleagues, but no matter how many hours we clock up, it doesn’t alter the fact that no one’s actually running things on the top floor. This is good news. We own the company!

    I’m curious, Dougal–if someone said to you, “God revealed himself directly to me the other day,” would you say in reply, “No, he didn’t; you’re just insane”?

    Not that I’m saying God did this, you understand (he told me not to say anything about it), but I’m wondering just the same.

    I’d probably ask to see the photo they got a passerby to take, of said person and their new mate God. Cos if you actually met God you’d take a photo wouldn’t you? That would really be something to tell the grandchildren.
