Maybe. But a weak deity with an ego problem is still a deity, and as
such is way stronger than me. So I will believe in any deity who
informs me of his/her/its rule to that effect. Of course, I will
require authentication; any deity should have no problem coming up
with a form which will satisfy me.

Yesterday as I was driving home, I saw a sign reading "Car Wash for
Jesus." Now I'm wondering why Jesus needs a car wash, or a car.
