A letter from God To Man!

Although i am in no way a religious person and personally do not believe in god, i still found this to be quite powerful. What do ya all think ?


Hey There, how, how's it going?
Long time no see.
I know I haven't been around much lately
But…it didn't seem like you wanted me to be
The last time I sent down a message you nailed it to the cross
So I figured I'd just leave you to it, let you be your own boss

But I've been keeping an eye on you, I have,
and it's amazing how you've grown.
With your technological advances and the problems you've overthrown,
And all the beautiful art you've created with such grace and such finesse,
But I admit there are a few things I'm afraid have impressed me less.

So I'm writing to apologize for all the horrors committed in my name,
Although that was never what I intended,
I feel I should take my share of the blame.
All the good I tried to do was corrupted
when organised religion got into full swing,
What I thought were quite clear messages were taken to unusual extremes.
My teachings taken out of context to meet the agendas of others,
Interpretations taken to many different ways and hidden meanings discovered

Religion became a tool, for the weak to control the strong
With all these new morals and ethics, survival of the fittest was gone
No longer could the biggest man simply take whatever he needed
‘cause damnation was the price if certain rules were not heeded
Some of the deeds committed in my name
just made me wonder were I went wrong.
Back at the start when I created this, the foundation seemed so strong.
See all the elements were already here, long before I began,
I just kind of put it all together
I didn't really think out a long-term plan.

I made the sun an appropriate distance and laid the stars across the sky
So you could navigate the globe or simply watch the sun rise
I covered the earth with plants and fruits,
Some for sustenance and some for beauty
I made the sun shine and the clouds rain
so their maintenance wasn't your duty
I tried to give each creature its own attributes
without making them enveloped
I gave you all you all your own space to
grow and in your own way space to develop

I didn't know such development would cause rifts and jealousy
Cause you to war against each other and leave marks on this planet indelibly
You see, I wasn't really the creater, I was just the curator of nature
I want to get something straight with homosexuals right now: I don't hate ya
I was a simple being that happened to be the first to wield such powers
I just laid the ground, it was You that built the towers

It was You that invented bombs, and the fear that comes with them
And it was You that invented money, and the corrupt economic systems
You invented terms like just-war and terms like friendly fire
And it was You that didn't know
when to stop digging deeper, when to stop building higher
It was You that exhausted the resources I carefully laid out on this earth,
And it was You that even saw these
problems coming but accredited them little worth
It was You that used my teachings for your own personal gain
And it was You that committed such tragedies,
even though they were in my name

So I apologize for any mistakes I made, and when my words misconstrued
But this apology's to mother nature, cause I created you

A letter from Man (posing as God) to Man...

It's hard to overlook the irony here, I appreciate the effort but at the end of the day this is, like all things written, the product of Man. Allot of the injustices mentioned are also the product of the writings of man.

It's too human for me to even begin to kid myself that it could have been written from the perspective of God who, after-all, transcends language entirely.

Nice song on the face of it but basically just a contrived attempt at theological closure.

Pessimistic response I know, just never warmed to that song. Thanks to the OP for posting it all the same though.

It is by a duo called dan le sac vs Scroobius Pip if anyone's interested.

Remain Vigilant

Well written, thanks for sharing.

May I ask where you got this from?

If it was truly a letter from God, It would explain a lot.

Great, even God is spamming mail now.

God, is part of man. All we lacked was Science.

Man can be inspired by God to put His words down. A scribe, if you will.

It takes faith to believe that it's actually from God, through man.

If it rings true...

yeah as psoted by basiert, its a song by dan le sac and scroobius pip,

i just found it be quite a powefrul set of lyrics and actually has alot of truth in it, i think many may read these words and maybe take a look at there life. maybe promote some postive change peace and love guys xx

good letter, not perfect ... but thanks for the effort ...

I just dont think trying to make God personal to humans is a good idea, it doesnt make sense that he came here to teach us ...

but thats what most control freaks religion say right ...
