not-jesus

Kyle Fletcher talks to God. Well, not really. Really, he emails God. But without a valid email address, it’s hard to ensure that God’s getting your emails. So Kyle posts those emails on a blog: God’s Mail.

Taking the apparent position that God is all-knowing, all-powerful and deeply emotionally invested in every little thing that happens on Earth, Kyle asks God for clarification and guidance on a number of issues. “Was swine flu on the Ark with Noah, or did you craft it in your secret Jesus science lab deep in the fiery core of the earth?” Hmmm, good question! ”

Kyle seems particularly worried about trends in the Christian industry, and he asks God for His position on Christian videos, plastic light-up Jesus statues, and a planned-for Bible-story theme park. Or, how about the question sparked by the image above:

Dear God,
Thank you for keeping up with the times and blessing our world with a revised version of your original eucharists. Can’t emphasize how much of a sacrifice it was to woof down the prior version, .05g of fat and all. Will there be future advancements in the Christian diet? Could you create a 30 day meal plan one could order by mail via a series of compelling television ads?

Check it out! You’ll be illuminated.

(I’d like to tip my hat to Steve Juras. I’m pretty sure I got this from his Twitter feed. But I’ve had the tab open for over a day now, and I can’t remember for sure.)
