Dear God
Dear God,
hope you got the letter, and...
I pray you can make it better down here.
I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer
but all the people that you made in your image, see
them starving on their feet 'cause they don't get
enough to eat from God, I can't believe in you

Dear God, sorry to disturb you, but... I feel that I should be heard
loud and clear. We all need a big reduction in amount of tears
and all the people that you made in your image, see them fighting
in the street 'cause they can't make opinions meet about God,
I can't believe in you

Did you make disease, and the diamond blue? Did you make
mankind after we made you? And the devil too!
[ XTC Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]

Dear God, don't know if you noticed, but... your name is on
a lot of quotes in this book, and us crazy humans wrote it, you
should take a look, and all the people that you made in your
image still believing that junk is true. Well I know it ain't, and
so do you, dear God, I can't believe in I don't believe in

I won't believe in heaven and hell. No saints, no sinners, no
devil as well. No pearly gates, no thorny crown. You're always
letting us humans down. The wars you bring, the babes you
drown. Those lost at sea and never found, and it's the same the
whole world 'round. The hurt I see helps to compound that
Father, Son and Holy Ghost is just somebody's unholy hoax,
and if you're up there you'd perceive that my heart's here upon
my sleeve. If there's one thing I don't believe in

it's you... Dear God.

God made us in his image. God knows both good and bad and we do too. we decide good and evil but that also means God can too.

I think this is the most intelligent song ever written. Anyone that hears this song and still believes in a god that allows all these bad things to happen and then tries to justify it with "god works in mysterious ways" is just blind and convincingly lying to themselves so they dont have to live with the truth that there is very very most likely no god at all. And if there is one, then he doesnt give a damn about his failed experiment called life.

god made man, if man is imperfect than god made something imperfect. But the definition of god usually comes down to all knowing perfect creator. Follow the logic you will see a bright light, but dont close your eyes.

I think that most of things this song talks about is human's fault, not god's fault. It's clear to me that god created Eden and his work was perfect, but humans weren't, so things went really wrong. We are not children anymore so to blame God for how is our world nowadays.
