God is not a pokémon.

You don't "have" God - in your heart, in your pocket, or anywhere else.
God doesn't do stuff because you think He/She/It/They should.
You don't hold competitions between gods to see which one is more powerful.
You don't have to have God around to discuss the existence of other Gods.
You don't catalog gods to see which one is better.

In short:

GOD IS NOT A POKÉMON!

Discuss.

Both Pokemon and God have received enthusiastic approval by the Vatican:

"The Vatican-based satellite TV station Sat2000, which is run by the Italian Bishops' Conference, declared that the Pokémon trading card and computer game is "full of inventive imagination," has no "harmful moral side effects" and is based on the love-thy-neighbor notion of "intense friendship."

You don't have to have God around to discuss the existence of other Gods.

god loves strangeness, this is why it refrains from micro managing.

what god isn't pretty much includes anything anyone claims to know about it.

as for mtg cards, which i've never played, just used them as trumps when teleporting around amber, my favorite would have to be earth and air based atmospheric and environmental effects.

pokimon for some reason remind me of neopets. both are sort of huggably cute. i liked the more respect as equals context of monster ranchers better.

if this thread has a focus, i'm not trying to hijack it,
i'm just not too certain quite what it is.

I fail to see why the fact that I love strangeness (but also beauty and charm and truth) would make Me refrain from micro-managing.

It's funny sometimes; since I've created this whole mess, it's up to Me to decide what to do and what to play with.

By the way, when I say that I fail to see something, I'm just being polite. I chose never to fail, and, in the case I'd chose to fail sometimes, I could always alter reality retroactively.
