Ft Hood, the Muslim and us, and Gods Galore.

There was a bad shooting on Fort Hood, Texas. Soldiers were killed by a gunman. That is not possible. How could such a thing happen on a military base? Then we find the killer was an officer. The impossible story just became totally unbelievable. More information tells us the kiiller was a MAJOR - a field-grade officer! Now we know this has to be a lie! But there is still more to come - we find out that he is also a medical doctor as well! NO- NO- NO- we can't believe that! And THEN we are told he is a psychairist! This is the craziest tale we have ever heard. Finally, word comes out that he is a Muslim. Oh Thank God!!! Now it all makes sense.

But there is still more . . . because as we learn about the killings and the prelude and the killer and the place and the emotions involved, we finally know that as a nation, that we are falling from the sky, slowly spinning down out of control. Nothing is planned anymore and then carried out, all is simply falling down to crash into the streets. Values are grimly abandoned, guns are grimly bought, hatred grimly simmers, vengence is now OURS dammit, too important to be left to some stupid lord to play around with. God can't begin to understand how MAD we have become. Allah has clearly become a pain in the rear, Yahweh revealed to be an raving child. ALL those Gods have to just cool it and go the hell away - at least for a while - when we get it straightened out then maybe, just maybe, we will give them another chance. Dammit, they just don't understand how MAD we have become!

Could it really be possible as some have already been so bold to say, that first man was created and then man created god in his own image? Are the Lord God, Allah and Yahweh only images graven in mankind's own petty likeness so he can bow down before his own imaginary creations and worship an exalted version of himself? Such a story would account for the world we have now created for ourselves, one in which we kill each other to honor, avenge and even just simply "please" our own separate gods.
