My Theology

Sometimes, I really think there is a God and that this being is most likely a "He". Furthermore, I think that "He" created this world and us in his likeness.

But here's the catch - I think that God is actually a computer programming student trying to run a simulation of a physical universe. His physical universe. Why do I think it's a "He"? Simple - go to any computer science class at a local university... odds are that the vast majority are geeky males that like to procrastinate and play video games like World of Warcraft or Halo on their Xbox system.

And I think our current monotheistic God is a grad student, while the pagan polytheistic gods were all undergrads. Really now - I think the Grad student (God) setup the simulation and handed over the project to a team of undergrads for a term. But they started introducing errors into the code and weren't maintaining it properly, so the grad student failed them all, took over the project again and planned to fix things that they screwed up on (i.e. sacrificing of virgins... what a waste).

Which brings me to my final point. I think God was actively programming and interferring with our lives back around and before Christ's time (incidentally, I think Christ was his avatar - in more ways than one). But I think he is currently procrastinating and is playing some online RPG with other Gods of other simulated universes. I mean, otherwise he'd have a direct hand in current events like he did back in the book of Genesis, since he's supposed to be benevolent and stuff.

Stupid God. He really should have installed a screen saver for this universe. But not the one with the flying toasters. That'd just be weird to wake up and the universe was replaced with a dark, dark void filled only with winged toasters.
