I guess it was god's plan for me to have acute appendicitis.
But then, it was god's plan for me to seek good medical care and to be healed.
Now it's god's plan for me to stay home for two weeks.
Where does it end?
Sad that so many people can't see through all the BS.

Gods love to smite. Just look at the Malaysian earthquake due to nekkid folks on a holy mountain. Smiting. You must have somehow pissed off God with your blasphemous atheist antics. God must be awfully mad at that medical staff for undoing a good smiting.

laughed out loud at that one.

And it didn't hurt a bit.

Laughter is healing, if it doesn't hurt too much.

Thanks!

I think the lyrics are pretty bold, considering when it was released. "Dear God" by XTC is another good atheistic tune from the same time period.
