...what happens next?

*for the sake of choosing an example, I'm going to go for the Judaeo-Christian God, and ONLY God - no angels, no baby Jesus, no Satan etc.

"Sorry I'm late! Some asshole in a SUV holding up traffic - I wish someone would do something about those bastards. But still, great holiday - just what I needed! Now then, can anyone bring me up to speed on what's been happening here since I left....ohhhhhh shiiiiiiiit"

Like I need to prove I'm already real.

A certain segment of society gets ready for the Rapture, everybody else goes about their daily bidness. Dawkins eats his hat on live nationwide tv. (he uses HP sauce)

Well how could he prove his existence if it's possible to doubt one's own?

Press conference? QBing the Detroit Lions thru an undefeated season?

The God of Abraham is the same dude Muslims worship too. Mohammed's visitor was an angel calling himself Gabriel.

So can we stop calling it the "Judeo-Christian God?" Since apparently anybody who leaves the vowels out of their language and hangs around the Euphrates has to deal with this weirdo?

Press Conference:

"So, Yahweh, about this whole innocent children suffering thing...what the fuck is that about?"

― Flower King of Flies (noodle vague), Friday, 13 January 2006 16:27 (twenty years ago)

And anyway what happens next after God proves his existence is we go "look, glow-in-the dark piggies" and he blows up the solar system to start the fuck over again.

Calls up The Rock asking if he could return to wrestling, because he's not so much a fan of his movies.

Pat Robertson says this God fellow should be assassinated by the CIA, because he sounds like a SOCIALIST.

the son is the socialist. the dad is more old-school do-the-crime/do-the-time.

As with every other day, some people notice, some people don't.

I guess it all depends on how He chooses to prove his existence. I mean if he comes along and grants everyone a wish, or just magics some new kind of creature into existence, people will generally be cool with that, church attendance would definetely be up a little on Sunday. He could go for the other option of fire and brimstone, turning a few people to stone and whatnot, this wouldn't be so cool, but again church attendance would probably go up.

I think personally, I'd like if it He made the Chickenbear even realer.

I'm happy for Him to just materialise in a suitably impressive way to everyone, all at once (he's omnipresent, it shouldn't be a problem). When I started this thread I expected a few more semi-serious answers tbh :)

― Markelby (Mark C), Friday, 13 January 2006 18:26 (twenty years ago)

Dude, ILE, religion? Come on!

You see, if he did that materialising thing, that's just David Copperfield magic. I want more wow-factor!

― jel -- (jel), Friday, 13 January 2006 18:30 (twenty years ago)

why would He not hold a press conference? Somebody has to.

He gets killed by Vatican secret service before anyone finds out he did it.

I dunno, I think I'd set the age at more like 70. I can imagine "settling" for a friend, maybe, after living an independent kind of life and deciding that having something familiar and unchallenging to come home to outweighs the hope of finding something that actually fills the vacuum...but I can't imagine getting to that state before I start collecting social security. Hope springs etc.

I mean, what if it was a mistake? What if you threw in the towel & got married/conceived and THEN one of you met someone else? There are just too many people involved to be hurt at that point.

Oh good heavens. I think this is the first time I've ever posted something on the wrong thread and I always think, "how the hell does that HAPPEN?" Now I know it comes of answering the phone, eating a burrito, and holding your place in a book with one elbow while typing out the post, which distractions combine to wipe out normal powers of observation.

― Laurel (Laurel), Friday, 13 January 2006 18:39 (twenty years ago)

I just assumed you were implying you'd marry God.

I'm happy for Him to just materialise in a suitably impressive way to everyone, all at once (he's omnipresent, it shouldn't be a problem).

But how many people would just assume that they were going mad? And how many people would take this manifestation at face value even if they could be assured that they weren't going mad? And why are we cutting Hindus, etc. out of the God business, given that, I thought, they all believed in some transcendent force or prime deity or something that easily be mapped onto the "God" thing (Brahman, etc.)?

Mr Chaney has already appeared.
Gods best trick was convincing the world George Bush was in charge of the Pentagon/Whitehouse or is that the devil??!
Either way hes a republican.

So Chaney was God-- it's all so clear now...

― Chris F. (servoret), Saturday, 14 January 2006 02:47 (twenty years ago)

He appears, and everyone's suprised that He really does look like Tony Wilson.

(except for Tony Wilson)
