God
You are my hope and my refuge in the day of my trouble.
-Jesus Christ
Every people have gods to suit their circumstances.
-Henry David Thoreau
To you I’m an atheist. To God I’m the loyal opposition.

The Gods gave a microbe a drop of water, and in it he lived. They gave an ant a half acre of land, and he prospered. They gave a tiger the forest and he formed an empire and became an emperor. They gave man the Universe and all the knowledge therein. He entered of his own free will the dungeon of Dogma, shut his mind to truth and slew and starved his brothers.
-Scriptures "The Book of Right Feeling"
God left so many fingerprints at the scene of creation that you wonder — does He want to be found, or does He want to be stopped?

Honour your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which the Lord your God gives you.
-Bible "Exodus 20.12"
Chant the name of God with heartfelt devotion. Everything else is just a pompous worldly show.
