More Than What God Will Ever Do For You

Best guardian angel you can have.  Dogs are often amazingly tolerant of children's antics such as tail-pulling.  Still, to be on the safe side, never leave a dog alone with a child younger than 5.  It's for the dog's protection as much as the kid's.

This image was circulating Facebook a few weeks ago.  I don't know the background to the photo, but what an amazing picture.

What Hath God Wrought?


Somehow, there's a popular belief that God/dess is omnipotent (all powerful, for those of you who don't read). I'd love to know who God/dess' agent is to put that one around. Anyway, what's the proof that God/dess is not all powerful?

Simple.

God would make a lousy talk show host. "Why bother asking you any questions? I know all the answers. Why am I laughing? I'm remembering the first time you farted." What attention-starving celebrity would put up with that? Skills needed for creating the Universe mean squat comparred to chatting up Madonna.

My dog Pony would make a better talk show host. It would go something like this:

Celeb: I love you, Pony! I'd jump on the couch, but I can't find one.
Pony: I'm not allowed on the furniture.

Well, Pony is allowed on the furniture in the house, but I think you get my point. SO it's up to you to polish up your talk show host skills, 'cause God ain't gonna do it for ya!

Poem: FootFoot Has Been Touched by God

This was a poem I wrote about 20 years ago about one of my guinea pigs, who in her later life suffered from seizures and hind-end paralysis.  It was first thought that she had epilepsy (after her necropsy, the cause was changed to cirrhosis).  Anyway, even though this isn't about a dog, I think it fits in with this blog.

The photo from the early 1990s shows, from left to right, Gweeker (silver agouti and white), Cocaine (black with white stripe up the nose), Peanut (brown, tan and white) and FootFoot (black.)  I consider my dogs to be great pig guinea pigs, but I do miss living with actual guinea pigs.

And, yes, my guinea pigs were better than God.




FootFoot Has Been Touched By God

You see, FootFoot the guinea pig has epilepsy
In ancient times she'd have a career in prophecy
For then those with fits
had been as seen as having been touched by God a bit

This thunderstorm of the brain
the seizures pouring down like rain
proves nothing can be the same
after the touch of God

The ancients knew that God can drive you crazy
Making a
hurricane in your brain
And so Foot Foot lies on her back, thrashing
telling God to go away

and leave her alone
to nibble hay

Dogs Better for Women than God

Women get the short end of the stick in orgainzed religions such as Judaism, Christianity and Islam.  According to all three religions, it was one woman -- Eve -- that caused the "fall" of her entire species and sentenced them to an eternity in hell by a perfectly loving God.  Because of Eve, it has been acceptable for women to suffer.

Because of the Fall (which never has been proven to happen) women cannot even rise to the highest levels of powers within the very insititution that hates them -- religion. 

Now, let's look to how dogs treat women.  Dogs are companions, guardians, co-workers, confidants and literal life savers.  For example, dogs have been successfully trained to detect ovarian cancer in the urine of affected women.  The dogs are able to tell if a woman has cancer long before and conventional medical tests can or before any symptoms set in.

Accoding to the Fall, it was Satan in the form of a serpent that convinced Eve to eat the forbidden fruit.  In real life, women do not have to fear serpents when they are accompanyed by a faithful dog.  One such dog is a black Lab named Dante that saved his owner from a venomous snake.  Dante (pictured) nearly died from snake bites. There's proof that this story happened -- unlike the Fall.

And dogs do this all without telling women that they will go to hell for eating fruit.  Meanwhile, God does nothing (because God never existed.)

3 Images of Dogs Being Better Than God




Need visual proof that any dog is better than any God?  Then this is the place for you.  Open your mind and fasten your eyes on this trinity of divine dog images.  I was going to do 10 images, but I have a short attention span.  So here you go.

In the first image, we see that dogs get along with other species without worrying about spending too much time with soulless animals.

The dog in the second photo saved a baby from a certain death while God did nothing. The dog was later named Mkombozi or "Savior."

I don't know the story behind the dog in the third image, but I'm, not sure we really want to know. I have to go feed my dogs now.

Life: Better Keep That Receipt


Note: I wrote this back in 2006 on one of my other blogs and it still applies -- except now I don't bother praying and I have two dogs instead of one The grainy image to the left is Hugo and Pony playing.

Dear God/dess:

Can I get a refund for my life? In just the past few years I've been abused, been victim of arson, can't find a steady job, went through international air travel, continue to  suffer from major depression -- and now my saintly Mom is suffering from an infection given to her by a doctor with a dirty needle. This on top of her arthritis, deafness, scoliosis and something else ending in 's' that I'm forgetting at the moment.

On the bright  side, I now know what healthy pus looks like. Not that I realized there was such a thing as healthy pus. However, no one asks that for my job qualifications. I can't even blog regularly because I have to keep the phone line open for medical crap.

I've noticed that my dog Pony has gone through most of what I have, yet is happier than any lark. I seem to be better off praying to my dog than to You.
