Let's give god a break.

Yes. More and more. I wonder if I should mind my own business. And steer clear of problem-plagued people. But then, we all have our share of problems. Coping with life. Some cope better than others. So, I would think. That it'd be the decent thing to do. To help those in big, big difficulty. Namely my friend Julie. The alcoholic. The depression-riddled. Those on the religious right. Say pray for Julie. But I suspect that god prefers to mind his own business. And wants Julie to find her own solutions. Maybe with the help. Of close friends. Or maybe even society as a whole. Yes, a society structured for the common good. So that it's unnecessary for god to step in. --Jim Broede
