Nobody knows what God wants. As far as I can tell the Bible was written by man. And no man is the spokesperson for God. It may be the height of
human hubris to pretend to know the mind of God.
I think it is best not to judge others and to live our lives by example. Be nice to others the way you want others to be nice to you. It's very
simple.
There's no grand conspiracy based on superstitious demons and evil angels lurking about. If man craps in his own bed God doesn't seem to care. It is
therefore up to man to clean up his own crap.
"Get Off This"
All these cats with holey jeans
Dirty hair and titty rings
Say, "What's your scene man? We got these questions
Is it true that you have sold your soul?"
I say "Hey man, I don't know
Lend me a quarter, won't you? I'll call my accountant"
Let's get off this
And get on with it
If you wanna change the world
Shut your mouth and start to spin it
Get off this
Get on with it
If you wanna change the world
Shut your mouth and start this minute
Petty little Ayatollahs
Come around to judge and stone ya
All's we're trying to do is make a fortune
Yeah, we ain't got no government loans
And no one sends a check from home
But get this: we're just doin' what we wanna
So let's get off this
And get on with it
If you wanna change the world
Shut your mouth and start to spin it
Get off this
Get on with it
If you wanna change the world
Shut your mouth and start this minute
Well the guitar player's stayin'
Out in Hollywood and sayin'
He's just tryin' to get some sleep but everyone's complainin'
Are you truly deeply cynical
'Cause boy you know that I loved you so
When no one knew your name and you were pompous
Let's get off this
And get on with it
If you wanna change the world
Shut your mouth and start to spin it
Get off this
Get on with it
If you wanna change the world
Shut your mouth, shut your mouth
Get off this
And get on with it
If you wanna change the world
Shut your mouth and start to spin it
Get off this
Get on with it
If you wanna change the world
Shut your mouth, shut your mouth, yeah
Everything is air and emptiness. All are looking for the elephant in the room though.

Jesus was and still is God's spokesperson. He is referred to as the Logos in the good news of John. Logos means "Word." God's Word is his
spokesperson. Jesus' words have been faithfully recorded in the Bible.
