Oh, . . . that's very nice of you Faith. You would endeavor to help me and you don't even know me. Wow, a sincere thanks.
But, you know Faith, there are so many people in the world, who have it so much worse than me, . . . I think I'd rather you devote your seemingly unlimited amount of time and effort to help them, not me.
For example, I think it would REALLY please your god if you started missing church and prayer and concentrated on helping:
1. 16,000 children die every year from hunger. That's one child every five seconds. It got to be a pitiful, agonizing, and pathetic way to die. Perhaps you can help your god in this area. He seems unable to help.
2. Malaria kills about 500,000 children every year. I don't know why a loving god would create malaria or other such diseases.
3. Approximately 1 in 700 children born have a cleft lip or a cleft deformity. I don't know why such a perfect god could create such a slipshod product. Anyways, I'd much prefer you and your god help those with birth defects instead of me. (Hmmm, seems to be a big and growing caseload of birth defects in Fallujah for some reason, . . . strange I thought our recent presidents were doing the lord's work there, not sure how that came out backwards.)
Sooo, again, thanks for all the sparing me from eternal suffering and stuff, but, please only consider me after you and your god had addressed these other bigger problems.
Cheers.
