The Image of God

There once was a city slicker
Who posted photos on flickr
All naked and clean
But rated, "Obscene"
By Rabbi, Priest, and the Vicar!

I am glad to hear that they all three agreed on something; this would be a start right now.

So if God is love, and love is blind, does that mean God is Stevie Wonder? (can't take credit for that, I heard a comedian say it once!)

Scholars agree he/she/it is a wonder, but we all wonder when he/she/it will get their act together! Aloha! Rico

The Bible states we were created in God's image - many of us apparently on a bad-hair or otherwise bad day or mood - yet that image is deemed "obscene" by the religious, so no wonder there are so many religions! Aloha! Rico
