God as Programmer

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

They say everything has a price. I’d say the price of peace is much lower than the price of war and it has far greater benefits. So those who market war must do an unbelievable job.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

You are one boss programmer (or more formally, senior programmer). You set it all in place. You made the universe function in ways that make us marvel when we begin to understand them. The multitude of applications and operating systems stretch beyond the capacity of our super computers. Your codes are elegant in design and efficient in performance.

Do you hack, too? Maybe you can get into my system and fix the bug that’s hampering my central processor. I don’t need to know you’re working on it. I’ll notice when it’s up and running as it should.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“I love that you built this tiki bar, Zacchaeus! You tax collectors have something going, don’t you?”

[He was big on appreciative inquiry, but He never said this.]

D. Blog: A Haiku

Each day I awake to an
Empty cup. I look and I say:
“More, please.”
