For god's comic relief.

I wonder if god has perfect days. When everything goes right. I’m told that god is perfect. All-knowing. Therefore, I assume that he must personally design a perfect day. At least for himself. If not for the rest of us. Maybe god doesn’t want us to be perfect. Or to have a totally perfect day once in a while. Maybe he doesn’t want a perfect world. If that’s so, I wonder why. Possibly, god did create a perfect world. But then he put us in charge. Maybe that was his greatest mistake. Maybe his only mistake. And maybe god has lived to regret it. But if god had any sense, one would think he’d erase it all. And start over. But it also could be that the world is the prime source of god’s amusement. His entertainment. And he’s created us as his perfect amusement. For comic relief. –Jim Broede
