Watching God Go Mad

Insane. Not quite adequate to describe what is happening, but it is the best word.

What is the best word when the world seethes and pulses with a madness so great, it feels like god has gone crazy and decided, you know what, fuck this place. It needs redecorating. People are faster to direct and change than mountains. A rubix cube to play with, and not a vast painting. Pick it up, twist turn see how much more colorful and confusing it is now and give up again.

Then the rubix cube walks away and starts thinking it is some great golf ball in some weird pinball machine. Silly cube. They never contemplated much what a post-human existence would be like for them. Hell, I doubt they think about what makes them human to begin with.

Human rubix cubes. I don't even want to think about the subliminal symbolism slithering in that simile. Or was it metaphor? Does it really matter if it is still symbolic, no matter what itchy word you assign to describe it?

Of course, god is debatable at the best of times. Maybe it isn't a god going mad, but more us going mad. Rebels without causes, shock value in spirituality as fashion. Nihilistic self doubt, yet still a yearning for meaning and a clear definition of right and wrong, reduced to a wobbly gelatine they try to sell you and tell you its the body of Christ. I'm no cannibal, but...

Actually that is a hell of an idea. Jello shot Jesus blood. With little crumbs of bread in them, so you can get all your god redeeming soul cleansing symbolic cannibalism done in one! Jesus Jello Shots! God loves a drunk!

Or does he? Supposedly, but since god has gone mad, I'm not sure we feel up to asking that question. Maybe his dad was an alcoholic. Maybe his mother was a good woman trying to make ends meet, yet still managed to be in denial about, reality in general.
All the kids at school made fun of him because they heard the stories. Not really stories. Their parents said something about a fruit roll-up blowjob.

So god went and created a god damned universe just to go mad, and destroy it to teach them a lesson. That isn't very nice at all. Very self centered, wouldn't you say?

God is mad therefore man is mad and thus...

The implications are vast.
