: "Notice the way God does things; then
: fall into line. Don't fight the ways of God,
: for who can straighten out what he has made
: crooked?
:
: Enjoy prosperity while you can. But when
: hard times strike, realize that both come
: from God. That way you will realize that
: nothing is certain in this life.

: In this meaningless life, I have seen
: everything, including the fact that some
: wicked people live on and on. So don't be
: too good or too wise! Why destroy yourself?
: On the other hand, don't be too wicked
: either--don't be a fool! Why should you die
: before your time? So try to walk a middle
: course--but those who fear God will succeed
: either way."

: I was groovin' with it, Butcho. Loving it.
: Then I got to the 'fear God' thingy.
:
: What's with that shit...'fear God'?
:
: Aside from the usual and useful stuff--like
: fear of walking off a cliff or sitting on a
: scorpion--can you think of anything to
: really fear?

Obviously Butch and i aren't talking cos he said some mean stuff about me and there aint no mods around to avenge my delicate little ego but i will say this, if you'd be kind enough to pass it on to him, Steve.
Who is this god doing things, where is he doing them from and why is he doing them to us?
