I wonder if God had a Facebook account what sort of things that he might post, some selfies, maybe of him and his son, and his other old friend, Holy Ghost. His favourite music he'd put there to share such as Handel's 'Messiah' or 'Te Deum', While he lolls about sat in his favourite throne and gets all of his Angels to play 'em. His followers, there would be millions of them but all the same none of them he would miss, though it is safe to say he's unfriended Old Nick and crossed him off his Christmas card list. His family videos would be thin on the ground, for the first billion years at least, till his son came along and fed crowds thousands strong now, that guy, he sure puts on a feast. His life was cut short and they all must have thought that was it, but he proved them all wrong, three days dead with the baddies but was rescued by daddy which was cool, 'coz he knew all along. And being all knowing, his I.T skills showing, Facebook he would easily master, but Millennia pass, he stares at the hourglass and wishes that his Broadband was faster.

G'day Viv … another classic from the master of comedy or should I say the jester in God's kingdom. I hope God's laughter isn't the thunder we get now and then for if it is, it'll be the storm of all storms - thanks for sharing your wit Viv - Lindsay

A very amusing intertwining of technology and religion. In a very funny way you have tackled a classic issue that has plagued the human race (or should I say rat-race). You have a great sense of humor, sir!!
