And yet, there's LP's comment: "In an interview, Joan Osborne stated that the song was less about religion and how we view God, and more about how we see each other."
Wow! I've been looking at the song backwards!
What if God were one of us, but I didn't know who... and yet I share this planetary bus with all these people, and maybe, just maybe that slob here, or that lost person there, is God.
What would I do differently just thinking that? What would everyone do? Would we stop ignoring the slobs and the lost, and treat them with love and compassion, simply because of how special they might be?

But wait, they are special.
