You're at a party and a man introduces himself to you who calls himself God.

You've never heard that word before.

Would you ignore him? Would you say he doesn't exist?

If you got along with the fella wouldn't you tell your friends you have a new friend called God?

If for some reason you decided you hated God you may avoid him and tell everybody God is a liar and a bigot.

You might taint his name. Maybe you're jealous of him, who knows. You hate something about him.

When people asked you if you knew God you might tell them,

'No, God doesn't exist to me.'

'I used to know God, but not anymore!'

'God is out of my life forever.'

'Good riddance to God - he never existed in the first place anyway. He was just an illusion.'

And then somebody says to you, 'But you and I both know God exists. I saw you speaking to him the other day. We both were'.

And you reply,

'That was then, this is now.'

'God doesn't exist, leave me alone'.

'Don't you dare mention God to me ever again or I'll destroy you too - and I'll say you don't exist either'.
