God is My Friend Lyrics

Lyric discussion by JimX 

Cover art for God is My Friend lyrics by Bob Schneider

I have heard Bob in concert go on about god. He comments about how god throws us on this earth, with competing religions that are all sure about their own veracity. God gives us no direct instruction and instead let's us try to filter the outrageous claims of pastors/rabbis/mullahs/Buddhas/scammers, etc. and wrestle with the decision. Of course, if we are wrong, it could mean eternal damnation in ever-lasting hellfire. Oh, and, by the way, god loves us.

I had to laugh at that, since the absurdity of it all has occurred to my pagan mind several times. I think Bob is too intelligent to actually believe in a classical god, as described by the religions of the earth. His god is probably just nature, or science.
