"God's Blog" - The New Yorker
Pretty funny:

Shouts & Murmurs
God’s Blog
by Paul Simms August 8, 2011



UPDATE: Pretty pleased with what I’ve come up with in just six days. Going to take tomorrow off. Feel free to check out what I’ve done so far. Suggestions and criticism (constructive, please!) more than welcome. God out.

Not sure who this is for. Seems like a fix for a problem that didn’t exist. Liked it better when the earth was without form, and void, and darkness was on the face of the deep.



Going carbon-based for the life-forms seems a tad obvious, no?



The creeping things that creepeth over the earth are gross.



Not enough action. Needs more conflict. Maybe put in a whole bunch more people, limit the resources, and see if we can get some fights going. Give them different skin colors so they can tell each other apart.



Disagree with the haters out there who have a problem with man having dominion over the fish of the sea, the fowl of the air, the cattle of the earth, and so on. However, I do think it’s worth considering giving the fowl of the air dominion over the cattle of the earth, because it would be really funny to see, like, a wildebeest or whatever getting bossed around by a baby duck.

2. What Would Charlton Heston Do?




So God(dess) went from writing on tablets of stone to blogging on the WWW?


I'm impressed.
