What’s The Point, Comrades?

Why do you keep voting for the 1%ers who label you moochers and offshore your jobs for fat bonuses
Where is the sense in this blind & paranoid faith in any of man’s fossilized & fairytale-funny religions
So, what is the point to apartment cowboys financed giant $75k pickups used only to carry groceries
How can you care more about their phony political scandals than this human-caused mass extinction

Why do you toss litter from your toxic fast food out the window instead of just waiting for a trashcan
How could gun control & deregelation be more important than clean air, infrastructure or healthcare
Why do you spend thousands of hours worshiping CorproSports while eating & drinking way too much
How could any savior reward you for massacring a roomful of schoolgirls just trying to learn to read

How can rabidly-awaited holidays be so important if you can’t even remember what you did or where
What’s the point in sharing your every lame mood with foolish selfies & vapid, illiterate tweets
Where’s the benefit to spending billions on wreckreational ATVs, snowmachines, jetskis & dirt bikes
Why is it so important to choose your own doctor if you still cant afford to go get any treatment

What’s the point to continuously watering, fertilizing, poisoning & mowing an artificially green lawn
Who benefits from your propaganda-induced, reptilian brain level patriotism – Besides the politicians
How do you triumph & what do you win still acting out as an adult - As a rabid anti-environmentalist
What now remains of all those timeless selfies that just get lost with your phone…once again

Is that beautiful tan really worth winding up like some wrinkled old turtle, riddled with skin cancer
Why would great Allah order death to those who worship him too, but are of a slightly different sect
What do you gain flouting your sexuality on parade flouts in the faces of the 97% who are unlike you
What’s the real message of a media history where Reagan is a superhero but Carter a pathetic loser

What’s the point to ever-increasing dEfense budgets when we’ll all die so very soon, no matter what
Why drink yourself into the same loud & retarded state during all of your preciously-little free time
What remains after a corporate life spent asskissing, shoulderclimbing, backbiting & beating down
How is blankly prostrating your fat self before ad-driven media a fitting reward for a hard days work

Why do you think your divine right to halt all abortions is among the most important issues to us all
What’s the point to richly-appointed multi-million dollar churches that stand empty 6½ days a week
Why bother teaching the boys to fish since their catch is so full of poisons that it is not safe to eat
Why let developers rip up good farmland cheaper than recycling their shoddy, abandoned strip malls

What do you gain by scornfully dismissing all their initiatives - Without providing any of your own
Is that factory-fast-food really so good that it’s worth the poisoned pounds you gain - Year after year
Why let them drain underground aquifers for free when you’ll have no other water after they leave
How can you not see the waste of idling a hulking 3 ton vehicle simply as a personal air-conditioner

Where’s the point in ripping new bandit trails on federal land while plopped on your fat ass in an ATV
Why do you need a 300 horsepower, 5 passenger crossover to drive to work every day – All alone
What is the benefit in choosing loud, scoffingly-proud dogma over calm, evidence-based rationalism
How will you use all your soundbites, sports stats & movie lines as you lie tubed-up on your deathbed

He’s now a part-time God

Look, He still knows all about everything but it seems like these days He’s just not online all the time
His individual plans for each of us are still in effect but maybe He’s not monitoring 24x7x365 currently
OK, it’s an issue…But, His customer support teams in our world are busy, trying to pick up the slack
These earthly minions must now rationalize ever more horrific events as part of His Mysterious Ways

I’m thinking maybe He might be like semi-retired what with all the awful stuff that’s been happening
At times you get gospel music & ‘Your prayer is very important to us…’ during our personal dialogues
Even commoners can plainly see that His omnipotence isn’t always working everywhere, all the time
But His priests, rabbis, preachers & imams do remain clueless as to the cause of these long outages

Maybe there are big issues in distant galaxies, but then, that never affected His omnipresence before
If it were anybody else, I’d have to at least ask if there might be some pay for looking the other way
For instance, greedy CEOs are living like kings til 90 while little girls get gunned down in classrooms
Could it be possible that some of this results from outsourcing portions of His work to like demigods?

Make no mistake, there are still times when we just know He’s been there, watching over us in grace
But: Scientific studies show that Divine Intervention is down some 60-70% since the last Dark Ages :)
However, the price of eternal salvation has not dropped at all during all of these last 5000 years
In the meantime, the devil’s heathen idols have picked up huge numbers of apostates, worldwide

Many Conservatives argue that it’s simply divine retribution & not merely His inattention to our ways
Perhaps that does indeed explain the success of those violent, heretical, caliphate-seeking jihadis
But why would the increasing numbers of poor, unwanted & abused children be punished from birth?
Is it possible that His merciful grace is capped at under 8 billion souls on this one small blue planet?

None of His agents of any stripe will comment on His impossible, but obvious, intermittent absences
Yet, certainly we hear increasingly strident calls to greater faith to soothe His possible ire with us
The amoral among us have posited that divine record-keeping has possibly been reduced as well…
Still - The true faithful continue to toe the line, ever fearful of losing the promise of eternal paradise

There’s a movement to part-time faith and many others now say they worship at home, in private
There are also many reports of sporadic power of prayer outages in many areas across the globe
Yet, many of His franchisees here on earth just go on about their business like nothing has happened
For, as ever, many declare that the richness of His plan shall only be revealed in the fullness of time

Perhaps it’s merely a work slowdown intended to focus attention on our blessing-entitled mindset
Surely America’s decreasing exceptionist indulgences are directly linked to lack of a divine presence
In any case, our politicians incessant imperative that ‘God Bless America’ seems far less effective
Maybe it’s just some kind of an auto-pilot malfunction or another type of heavenly technical glitch

There may be a backup in processing all the martyrs & innocent people we have sent along lately
Possibly He’s getting on towards retirement and has simply decided to slow down a little bit
Or, perhaps He wants to spend more time with His family and His other interests – as outed CEOs say
After all, what are the joys of 24x7x365 attention to every atom in the universe & all our petty lives?
