Curb Your God...

I saw a bumper sticker on a pickup truck today that really caught my attention. The sticker was bright orange...and the truck was a dark green. That got my attention right there. But the bold black letters on the orange sticker really drew me in. "Curb Your God!" was the message on the sticker.

Seeing that bumper sticker today...coming on the heels of reading some news articles and FaceBook posts about two clergy types (self-identifying as Christian) who pronounced that the incredible destruction caused by tornadoes in my part of the country recently were the work of their God...I thought, almost outloud, "Yeah, Curb THAT God!"
~Curb your god if your god visits violence on human beings.
~Curb your god if your god is out to condemn what your god created.
~Curb your god if your god favors one people over all others; one nation over all others; one religious formula over all others.
~Curb your god if your god is too small to be graceful, too violent to be forgiving, and too narrow to be redeeming to us one and all.

Yeah, Curb THAT!
