What you want

What you want

A Poem by andrew mitchell

On breaking out
from his atheist shell
he challenged God
I want a new car.

He prayed and prayed
I want a new car.
Eventually, he realised
the system in place
would not allow
this to happen.

So he stole the car
and asked God
for his forgiveness.

His dilemma now is
does he keep the car?

Made me smile Andrew and remember the confession box where all sins are forgiven:) Religion can be such a nonsense at times.

So true Chris absolute nonsense but how gullible are some people.
lol. he's got some nerve taking matters into his own hands. that's a tough one - especially since he's making payments on it to the devil. i wouldn't want to ride in it even if he held the door open for me.

must be an electric tesla.
Silly logic and justice system in some religions.
Wait for The Judge to kill another innocent son every time someone sins, or ooops, one was enough.
But God fabricated then abrogated a way out of" an eye for an eye" and sincere forgiveness and true punishment for crimes.
Long live common sense laws and true divine justice.

You are welcome Emperor Andrew
It depends. Your atheist...let's call him Eric.
Does Eric move forward and stick to his shift in his theological beliefs? Or is it automatic that he reverse back, as he's all revved up because God didn't come through in the clutch? Unless he wants to put on the brakes and just sit there in park.
So that's the key. It's his choice: forward or reverse or park. What do you think? Does Eric idle?
