Seven days later....

Stolen from here

1: The Lord God built the world in seven days!

2: Obviously! There's black holes and asteroids everywhere, reality is impossible to comprehend; every aspect of existence is utterly terrifying.

1: The Lord works in mysterious ways.

2: Don't tell me you wouldn't fire a contractor who used that as an excuse.

I could write a deconstructionist essay on Loretta Lynn's "God Makes No Mistakes" from Van Lear Rose (which is a very good album)

Why, I've heard people say
Why is this tree bent
Why they don't have God enough to know
Thats' the way that it was meant
why is this little baby born
all twisted and out of shape
We're not to question what he does
God makes no mistakes

Why I've heard people say
Why is my child blind
Why is that old drunk still livin
When a daddy like mine is dyin
our blessed father gives us life
has the power to take it away
There's no reason for what he does
God makes no mistakes

Why I've heard people say
God cannot be alive
And all the things people say
Has to be a lie
When they're down and out
And they need a hand
And their very souls at stake
If they'll call on him and just beleive
God makes no mistakes

Hmm.... bitterness?
