Stop this nonsense.
Let me kiss you.
00:05:29:00 00:05:32:23
003
Wait until Perfect Man marries us.
00:05:32:23 00:05:40:01
004
You know about my beliefs so
stop playing with my nightmares
00:05:40:01 00:05:47:23
005
You know about my fear of hell.
00:05:47:23 00:05:57:23
006
Which hell?!
There must be a God first to make hell,
00:05:59:09 00:06:06:23
007
Then burn us in it for a hot kiss.
00:06:06:23 00:06:16:23
008
What if there is a God?
00:06:21:05 00:06:25:06
009
What if there is a God?
00:06:27:14 00:06:29:22
010
What if there is none?
00:06:29:22 00:06:33:07
011
Then nothing but if there is one
have to answer for all our sins.
00:06:34:01 00:06:41:21
012
If there is a God he has to respond to
our unanswered questions.
00:06:42:06 00:06:49:12
013
If there was a God
I’d grab him by the collar and
00:06:49:20 00:06:53:10
014
told him what kind of a world
is this that he created?
00:06:53:10 00:06:57:01
015
God has no collar.
00:06:57:01 00:06:58:21
016
No collar? Then I’d grab his feet.
00:06:58:21 00:07:02:03
017
Dummy, God has no feet.
No feet either?!
00:07:02:03 00:07:08:06
018
Hold my hand.
00:07:09:02 00:07:11:16
019
Then I’d danced the waltz with him.
00:07:12:02 00:07:16:24
020
But God is not a woman.
00:07:16:24 00:07:19:02
021
- And I’d ask him…
- What would you ask?
00:07:19:02 00:07:22:07
022
Answers for all the unanswered questions.
00:07:22:07 00:07:26:01
023
- What if he wouldn’t answer?
- I’d raise hell and burned him in it.
00:07:26:01 00:07:31:13
024
- How?
- I’d give him a thousand questions.
00:07:31:13 00:07:37:01
025
Oh I am sizzled!
00:07:40:13 00:07:43:04
026
He already made the question you wAnt to
ask him so he knows the answer…
00:07:43:04 00:07:49:24
027
with every blasphemy you say…
oh I’m burned…I’m burned.
00:07:57:10 00:08:04:15
028
I’d give him a thousand unanswered questions
to make his life like hell just like ours.
00:08:06:11 00:08:16:11
029
He made you and your questions so
he knows the answer.
00:08:24:23 00:08:32:07
030
You can’t throw him in hell.
00:08:32:07 00:08:36:09
031
Then I’d make a heaven and throw him in
it for so long
00:08:36:09 00:08:42:13
032
and made him to eat and sleep and
make love with his Angeles.
00:08:42:13 00:08:47:07
033
That he would wish to die
but couldn’t leave.
00:08:47:07 00:08:55:01
034
Your highness,
if you exist please come sit on this chair.
00:09:00:05 00:09:09:03
035
I wAnt to talk to you.
00:09:09:03 00:09:12:21
036
I wAnt to see how you can answer for
all this misery you created for us.
00:09:12:21 00:09:20:01
037
If religion is our way of salvation then
why so many to confuse us?
00:09:21:02 00:09:30:03
038
Couldn’t you make only one religion
so we wouldn’t be in so much trouble?
00:09:30:03 00:09:37:07
039
So you did not create all these religions.
We made them.
00:09:37:07 00:09:43:02
040
We even created you.
That’s why for every one you look like them.
00:09:43:02 00:09:51:10
041
Do you understand my point?
00:09:51:10 00:09:54:20
042
Did you hear me?
Get what I’m saying?
00:09:54:20 00:09:59:17
043
Good that our meditation teacher
gave us these chairs
00:10:02:11 00:10:06:08
044
to sit on so Perfect Man can marry us.
00:10:06:08 00:10:09:23
045
At least when we get tired we can sit on it.
00:10:09:23 00:10:13:05
046
The carpenter who made this chair was more
precise than the God who created the world.
00:10:13:05 00:10:22:12
047
It is light, pretty, stylish
and has four equal legs.
00:10:22:12 00:10:30:12
048
Plus it is truly useful but the world God created
has some ugly and some unstable places.
00:10:30:12 00:10:40:12
049
As if there was no talent behind it.
So either God does not exist
00:10:40:12 00:10:42:22
050
or if he does he couldn’t think further.
00:10:42:22 00:10:50:04
051
Do you know what God is laughing at?
He is watching from up there and sees us
00:10:50:04 00:10:56:20
052
as two cock roaches sitting in the middle of
the desert criticizing existence.
00:10:56:20 00:11:06:20
