an imperfect God?

i don't know
many people who still believe
in God.
what with all the killing
and mayhem,
natural disasters.
they say, yeah, there's
probably something
out there,
some power, larger
than us.
but God. give me a break
he doesn't seem to be doing
a very good job.
the whole Jesus thing.
the virgin Mary,
the resurrection,
what have you been drinking?
the Bible?
old stories written
on papyrus
to control the masses.
Jonah and the whale,
Moses parting the Red Sea.
come on man.
really?
what's up with the Pope's hat?
heaven and hell?
and i'm like yeah,
i know, i know, but
i'm drinking that Kool-Aid
until you come up
with something better.
