Didn't God want Sarah as VP in 2008? He needs to incorporate so He can finally throw some shekels around for ads.

Who God wants in the White House? I'll tell you who He wants. A human. Other than that, God tends to let Man make his own choices.

/what man tells his brothers God wants is something else entirely

Every time I see arguments like this, it makes me think of the Volataire song "God Thinks"

An equally-relevant question: Which team does the Flying Purple Dragon of Candy Mountain pick to win the Super Bowl?

I don't think Castiel cares who gets elected.

Funny how god's wants always seem to exactly coincide with the wants of the person telling us about what god wants.....

/"Gott mit uns" ring any bells?
//Your god wants steak. A nice 2" thick dry aged porterhouse, with a potato on the side, medium rare, a bottle of thirty year old single malt....oh, and an after-dinner mint, two hookers, and some blow. Why yes, I'll be taking delivery for him....why do you ask?

I am impressed by the size of the ego one must have to believe that an omnipotent creator of all the universe wants YOU to lead one of the larger tribes of humanity. Oh, and by the way, it is God's favored tribe.

after last week's episode i'm kinda digging Osiris. sure, he was a dick...but he had style. and a spiffy god staff.

I'm more interested in who Galactus wants in the White House.

He's a much more credible, dangerous, and awe-inspiring fictional character who could destroy us all.

Great show! I'm so pissed. For some reason my DVR didnt record the first 3 eps of the new season. ARRRRGH! I fell asleep on the switch, trusted technology! What a fool I was.

I'm not sure what Peter Frampton has to do with this.

Disclaimer: I'm Catholic.

That said, I would fully support a measure that would automatically disqualify any politician who publicly says anything about religion. No mention of god, allah, praying or whatever allowed. It's f*cking up policies and has been for years.
 
2011-10-18 02:47:50 PM
How about, "who gives a f*ck?!"

Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry have both claimed Him.

Craig T. Nelson. I was told.

Obviously he'll want whoever gets the most electoral votes to be president, because, if he didn't, they wouldn't.
 
2011-10-18 02:50:26 PM
I'm still waiting to hear who Joseph Smith wants.

He wanted Bush last time, so I think we need to accept that God isn't very good at picking Presidents.

/he picked Polk, too.

Who does the Weekly World News alien want?
He's kind of a big deal in the election cycle.

Good news my Christian friends.

The US government has plans to increase the national railway infrastructure for both cargo and passenger trains. Billions will be spent on the project and I have an idea for a contract worth millions to you.

The problem:
The Rocky Mountains are in the way. They stretch more than 3,000 miles and would impede many important routes.

The solution:
Matthew 17:20 says:
He replied, "Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."

What would take years of tunneling could be solved in moments by you. The savings on our tax dollars would be fantastic and your personal payment huge.
I only ask for a 3% broker fee for sharing the idea with you. If for some reason you aren't interested in this job would you forward the idea to your Christian friends so they might take the project. Please select your reason for not wanting the job from the list below or add your own.

1. I don't need millions of dollars.
2. The mountain range is too far for me to drive to.
3. My faith is smaller than a mustard seed.
4. I'm ignorant of Mountain range ecosystems and wouldn't want to break something.
5. I don't believe the word of Jesus even when he starts his sentence "Truly I tell you".
6. I hate the president so much I don't want to help his plans.
7. I have a personal relationship with God that doesn't need the bible to work.
8. I'm not really a true Christian.
9. One of my Christian friends already said he was going to move the Rockies to the Mexican boarder to solve a different problem.
10. I have Siderodromophobia- Fear of trains, railroads or train travel.
11. I refuse any idea sent by email as part of my fight spam policy.
12.

Mr. Coffee Nerves: Didn't God want Sarah as VP in 2008? He needs to incorporate so He can finally throw some shekels around for ads.

Yep, he wanted Sarah to be the VP nominee so Obama would win. And it looks like God is gunning for the same in 2012. Choose a Republican so insane that Obama wins again.

John Denver. Duh.

What about the Easter Bunny and Santa Clause? Doesn't anyone care what they want?

"I didn't say they should run, I said 'Can someone get me a honey bun?' Look, it's not my fault your brains are still running on 23g. Wait, scratch that."

Obviously he wants me in the White House, but I tell that whiny asshole to shut it. I'm too busy getting drunk.
 
2011-10-18 02:53:22 PM
Bill Roberts?
 
2011-10-18 02:53:36 PM
What God wants.(new window) As told by Roger Waters with a little help from Jeff Beck.
 
2011-10-18 02:53:53 PM
God, don't know.

Jesus, meanwhile, loves everyone. He'd be fine no matter who won. Jesus actually probably would decline to vote because then he'd be forced into picking one person over another.
 
2011-10-18 02:54:10 PM
I never get the whole "god" thing myself. I'm supposed to believe that we're created in "his" image. So this god has lungs, eyeballs, a penis, takes a shiat, can break a toe , works out occasionally, dreams, sweats, farts, has bad breathe and the occasional craving for Arbys among other human traits? Right. And floats around, we can't see him, but when we die we'll end up in a magic kingdom where we sit around and stare at this guy?
Tool using monkeys are weird.
 
2011-10-18 02:54:47 PM
I didn't used to believe in God, but then he said unto me "Kate Beckinsale shall be your love slave", and I became a believer.

Still waiting...
 
2011-10-18 02:54:48 PM
Mike Hunt. And VP Lou Scoont.
 
2011-10-18 02:56:32 PM
Pardon my confusion, but I thought the Revolution did away with that whole Divine Right thing.
 
2011-10-18 02:56:50 PM
If there is a God He will do as he pleases no matter who is in power.
Jesus never said "vote for this man" he said obey whoever is elected or appointed, render to him what is his, and render to God what is God's.
The moral of the story is let politicians handle politics and you handle your soul.
 
2011-10-18 02:57:40 PM
I think anyone God wants in the Whitehouse should automatically be disqualified. A God that "intelligently" designs the human body as stupidly as he did, is obviously a bumbling buffoon and any political leader backed by him should be locked up in a padded room for their own safety.
 
2011-10-18 02:58:11 PM
A better question would be, "Who does The Fellowship (new window) want to be President?" I think Anita Perry's complaint is that the country-club Republicans are backing Romney because they're tired of the fundies turning off independents.
 
2011-10-18 02:58:29 PM
Lenny. God wants Lenny in the White House.

//Trick question. Lenny is God.
 
2011-10-18 02:58:42 PM
God can effin-well register and vote like the rest of us. If he doesn't vote, he can't biatch.
 
2011-10-18 02:58:54 PM
DON'T GO TO THE ARTICLE! Your page hits merely serve to help convince CNN that this is the type of content that people want.

This is the one downside of Fark.

I thought he won last time

Who is this God you speak of? Did he or she register as a voter? Are they even an American citizen?
 
2011-10-18 03:00:02 PM
God? You mean the Flying Spaghetti Monster?

Clearly His Noodliness wants an Italian in the White House kitchen, or at least someone who can make a good marinara sauce.

I hope subby burns in hell.
