Bad Theology Week comes to a blessed end.

 Bad Theology Week Comes to a blessed end.   

Monday’s God is full of blame,
Tuesday’s God is always the same, [as]
Wednesday’s God [that] hates sin, [and]
Thursday’s God [that] brings the Last Days in.
Friday’s God rides with flag unfurled, [so that]
Saturday’s God will rule the world.

And the God of the Sabbath Day?
Merry and blithe, forgiving and gay?
Let's keep that soppy God well away.

Why are so many of the Christians I know so damn mad? I think it is because God just isn’t acting up to their standard. The rain continues to fall on the unjust as well as the just; and as many bad things happen to good as to bad people, and vice versa. The Last Days aren’t coming in, so all that’s going wrong won’t be put right. God seems to have decided that absolute power corrupts absolutely and so to eschew it. (Jesus!)
     In short, God is letting all of us down. But no one can say that.
