Chosen for What? 
                by Albert Russo 
                Abie asked Goddess what
                they should do. She told him to listen to his
                senile wifey and to send Hagar and Ishmael away,
                for She would provide for them.  
                Well, we all know how ultra
                generous with these two She was, coz they
                multiplied and multiplied, so much and so
                forcefully, that their descendants, the Muslims,
                thanks to Allah and his prophet Muhamad,
                accounted for two billion souls in 2025, whereas
                those of Isaac never reached the number of twenty
                million. What was Goddess plan, making such
                a huge difference? Did She want the Jews to
                become the Happy Few, and if so why did She let
                the Christian and the Muslim folks torture them
                continually? What kind of blessing was that for
                the so-called Chosen People? Or maybe She chose
                them to play the game of hit or miss, and to see
                what happened, preparing for the Nazi doctor
                Mengele to experiment with the millions who were
                dragged to the concentration camps? How do I know
                this? In our history class we are being taught
                the Holocaust, among all the terrible other
                things that happened during WWII. 
                Now Goddess, yeah Im
                talking to you personally again, and you dont
                scare me one bit. Either most people who believe
                in you cant think for themselves, or you
                are the greatest magician-hypnotist there ever
                was. Yet, I often feel like beating the hell out
                of you, for all the misery you allow to spread
                over our planet, provoking earthquakes, tsunamis
                and fires, and pushing people to kill and maim
                each other. Ok, humans are also responsible for
                smashing the friggin ozone, but you never stop
                them anyway. I imagine how much you enjoy
                watching them tearing each other apart, like they
                were comics figures in a video game. Shame on you!
                Yeah, I know some of your followers would like to
                place a fatwa over my head - a fat lot, these
                nerds know about what is really moral and what is
                wrong - they call me a blasphemer, like that poor
                Bibi in Pakistan who chose to live as a Christian,
                even though she came from a Muslim family.  
                Muesli-Christies-Hybrid
                porridge is what I call that awful mixture of fonda-mentalists,with
                twisted brains. How else would you call them who
                want to impose their religion by the sword and
                the gun?  
                If there are so many crazy
                things in it and since I dont believe in
                divine shenanigans, why do I continue to read the
                Bible, you ask. Coz I love some of the stories,
                which read like lil thrillers, with kingdoms,
                wild animals, fairy tale miracles and romance.
                NOT because of the hundreds of commandments, some
                of which stink like manure, theyre so
                beastly - poor animals, why do humans always
                accuse them for their (the humans) worst
                deeds, after all, beasts dont act to hurt,
                even the bloodsucking critters, which do their
                disgusting slurping just to sustain themselves,
                like we eat meat.
