Analect 09

A lot of people walk around saying they know God, or they know what God wants. But think about it. The only one with a head big enough to know what God wants would have to be …you guessed it, God.  With the small heads we humans stumble around in …well, you just couldn’t cram what God wants in there. This is self-evident if you’ve read some history or are clued in to current events.

Any politician certain he has a close relationship with the Lord should be suspected of being at least a complete liar –one with an especially bad case of illusory elitism.  Only God knows what God wants. The rest of us are just hoping, guessing, delusional, or whistling past the graveyard.

The Son of Sam was delusional. But he wasn’t president.
