Fun talk:God's Suggestion Box

This brings to mind an interesting hypothetical situation: people invoke God's name all the time over trivial stuff. As in, "GOD, it's hot in here!" or, "JESUS CHRITS, that sandwich was bad." Wouldn't be funny if God actually answered?

You: God it's hot in here!
God: Yes?
You: ...

Family Guy already did that one... God showing off in a bar accidentally kills the girl he's chatting up, says "Jesus Christ!", the bearded one turns from the one-armed bandit, says "Yeah?", God tells him to warm up the car...
Or, imagine if God actually responded at the moment when many humans typically call out his name. I'll let you think about that a second. PFoster 18:39, 13 January 2008 (EST)
As an avowed prude, I refuse to discuss what you just implied. --Star of David.png Radioactive afikomen Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments. 18:49, 13 January 2008 (EST)
I dunno, humans might be freaked out, but I don't think God would mind all that much. He did invent it, you know. Lurker 12:59, 31 January 2008 (EST)
SATAN! S** is a perversion of God's will—everyone knows that until The Fall, animals reproduced asexually. --Star of David.png Radioactive afikomen Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments. 13:08, 31 January 2008 (EST)
Yeah. Tell that to King Solomon. Lurker 13:16, 31 January 2008 (EST)
God? In my experience it's always been Yesss!!!! Except for one Oh No!. But that one is too embarassing to repeat. 14:01, 31 January 2008 (EST)

About number 2[edit]

First, didn't God already change the speed of light? And the decay rates of isotopes for that matter. It's just that minority of evil evolutionitiests who absurdly take them as immutable. Second, and much more important, as a good citizen of a Northern European welfare country, I plead you: no free alcohol! No oceans into wine! We already embarass ourselves enough with our lets-get-cheap-alcohol trips to Tallinn. Editor at CPBring TK back 13:26, 31 January 2008 (EST)

Well, the wine would be undrinkable anyways. Just think of all the sea life and other crap in it. Mmm! Fish-flavored wine! --Star of David.png Radioactive afikomen Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments. 13:35, 31 January 2008 (EST)
The stuff in the European wine lake is bad enough. Maybe if he turned it into ready salted Tequila with some lime. Jollyfish.gifGenghis Marauding 13:57, 31 January 2008 (EST)

I presume, as a deity, God will have already thought it through and turned all the sea creatures etc into bar snacks.

About one of the holy suggestions[edit]

I forget which one, but one of these suggestions asked God to ignore this list. On the off chance that God exists, I decided to remove it because otherwise the whole list would be worthless anyway. I added one of my own to replace it. --70.29.37.90 (talk) 01:33, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

That would have been what some of us here call a "joke", with any luck. So I put it back... rather clumsily, I also deleted yours... oops... ħumanUser talk:Human 02:35, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Number 14[edit]

If god ignored everything on the list he would ignore the plea to ignore the list therefore making him not ignore the list. hey that rhymes — Unsigned, by: BenB / talk / contribs

It is omnipotence paradox, although it has a lot more in common with Russell's Paradox, - π 08:09, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
