An American think tank called the Pew Charitable Trust recently surveyed young adults and found that less people now believe in God. God damn it. Yes the very idea that has held together so many civilizations through their opinions and bloody skirmishes about the definition of and miracles from. Now this disturbing trend definitely puts a spotlight on the need to find an alternative skirmish worthy topic.
C'mon citizens start thinking! Are you certain that there is no God? What has led you to come to this ghastly conclusion? Too many of his children are getting the finger? No food, only war. Financial wealth evaporating? Gas at $4 per gallon? Only nincompoops in congress and other elected governments around the world? C'mon think..that cannot be all bad? The Tsunami after all was only restricted to Japan. Could have been worse folks. Someone is watching.
Lets pray that this is not happening. We need an outlet to be the fall back when all blame fails. 'It was God's wish' will now become outdated. That should not be allowed to happen. People now have to tax their already dessicated brains for another solid excuse. What would replace terms like godforsaken? And who better to check in with when earlier 'God only knew'?
This is an all out disaster. Now people can actually take the Lord's name in vain and it will mean nothing - it would be like saying damn it Peter or Ganesh. C'mon lord - time to buckle up and show these cretins a thing or two. What say you?

Mass, Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Rhode Island (tiniest state in the union). The outing helped tally up the states we either lived in, visited or have worked in to 47. Guess which three have eluded this intrepid traveling family. Any rate the drive was all in about 1,800 miles and included some memorable geographic wonders or points of interest. Easternmost part of state of Massachusetts being one. Furthest drivable road east in Mass being another. Visit to all Ivy League schools (term harkens to a collegiate athletics conference and generally regarded as elite academic institutes of some repute worldwide) is another random bucket list item of which this trip afforded the chance to knock two more of the list. Dartmouth in Hanover, NH and Brown (and its sister institute the RISD - school f
