Dear God,
hope you got the letter, and...
I pray you can make it better down here.
I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer
but all the people that you made in your image, see
them starving on their feet 'cause they don't get
enough to eat from God, I can't believe in you
Dear God, sorry to disturb you, but... I feel that I should be heard
loud and clear. We all need a big reduction in amount of tears
and all the people that you made in your image, see them fighting
in the street 'cause they can't make opinions meet about God,
I can't believe in you
Did you make disease, and the diamond blue? Did you make
mankind after we made you? And the devil too...
Dear God, don't know if you noticed, but... your name is on
a lot of quotes in this book, and us crazy humans wrote it, you
should take a look, and all the people that you made in your
image still believing that junk is true. Well I know it ain't, and
so do you, dear God, I can't believe in I don't believe in
I won't believe in heaven and hell. No saints, no sinners, no
devil as well. No pearly gates, no thorny crown. You're always
letting us humans down. The wars you bring, the babes you
drown. Those lost at sea and never found, and it's the same the
whole world 'round. The hurt I see helps to compound that
Father, Son and Holy Ghost is just somebody's unholy hoax,
and if you're up there you'd perceive that my heart's here upon
my sleeve. If there's one thing I don't believe in
it's you... Dear God.

Poor theologically-confused XTC. There are no pearly gates, there is no God, but someday, there will be a judgment day for all them gun-botherers in the USA.
Bad apples affecting the pure. Melt their albums, instead.

No, someone to traduce his message and proclaim him divine (complete with ungrammatical title) so as form and lead a cult around him.
Originally posted by UmbrageOfSnowOnly sticklers will cavil at the grammar issue--I was completely unaware that "Jesus Christ" is (deliberately?) bad Greek. Should be "Jesus the Christ" (i.e. "Lord" ). "Jesus Christ" sounds like you could also call him Mr Christ. Anyway, "Christ" has been taken, so you can think up another title for him.

I would prefer a cult that took the middle way--sacrificing those on either extreme of the spelling mean.
