CHAPTER 201 But your decline as a God will also result in the creation of devout new churches,
2 aWho will remember exactly what you said,
3 Including what you said to them personally yesterday,
4 bAnd understand all of it perfectly,
5 Including the part about having to be born again,
6 Unless you want to go straight to hell when you die,
7 Not to mention the part about how you're coming back on the Twelfth of June,
8 Next year,
9 At the Los Angeles Coliseum,
10 So please send a thousand dollars to reserve your seat now.
CHAPTER 211 And all these great new churches will start fixing everything again in your name.
2 cThey'll remember how you said that they shouldn't ever question anything,
3 dOr think about anything,
4 eBecause everything you need to know is all laid out pretty clearly in the Bible.
5 And they'll remember how you said that all fpornographers should suffer untold agonies in hell,
6 gAnd on earth too,
7 hAnd how books that might be disrespectful to you in some way should be banned and burned,
8 iAnd how no one should ever have any fun at all,
9 jEspecially sex,
10 But always smile like an idiot anyway,
11 kAnd how you said that we should kill all the communists and make the world safe for democracy,

12 And salute the flag a lot,
13 lAnd send lots of money to television preachers,
14 In your name.
CHAPTER 221 And so there will be a great mrenaissance of belief in you,
2 nAnd once again, waves of hatred will fan out across the planet,
3 In your name,
4 Bringing ohope and salvation and freedom from thought to millions and millions of your followers.
CHAPTER 231 But don't be down on yourself about any of this (said the crown of thorns),
2 Because nobody can ever prove that any of this is your fault,
3 Or that basically the same thing wouldn't have happened anyway,
4 In someone else's name,
5 Because these are human beings we're talking about after all,
6 pAnd they're always pretty much the same,
7 No matter what anyone says to them.
8 And besides, sooner or later,
9 qSomeone will come,
10 rWho can speak a language they understand,
11 sAnd they will listen to him,
12 Because he will understand them,
