I do not claim that God is dead. I tell you He is alive and well but in no position to offer salvation, being damned Himself for his criminal indifference. He was lost the moment He demanded fealty and worship before He would offer His protection. The unmistakable bargain of a gangster. Whereas the devil is anything but indifferent. The devil is always there to help those who are ready to sin, which is another word for ‘live’. His phone lines are open. Operators are standing by.

I see God now as an unimaginative writer of popular fictions, someone who builds stories around sadistic and graceless plots, narratives that exist only to express His terror of a woman’s power to choose who and how to love, to redefine love as she sees fit, not as God thinks it ought to be. The author is unworthy of His own characters. The devil is first a literary critic, who delivers this untalented scribbler the public flaying He deserves.

Jesus on His cross. So many have wept for Jesus on His cross. As if no-one else has ever suffered as he suffered. As if millions have not shuffled to worse deaths, and died unremembered.

God saves- but not now, and not here. His salvation is on layaway. Like all grifters, He asks you to pay now and take it on faith that you will receive later.
