I think I hear G-D Laughing

Oy and Harraigh. I think I can hear G-D laughing at all of you true believers. What ever you may call your selves. Christian?? Muslim?? My folk have had to put up with both of you and we just want to be left alone by both of you. Go off to some unihabited corner of the world and fight it out between your selves but leave us alone. We don't want either of your religions. We have our own way and it's kept us alive for far longer than either of your religions have been in the world. The calender you use we gave to you because our ancestors looked up into the heavens ans actually watched a real sun and real planets moving around in the heavens. The mathematics you use in your every day lives came from our original observations when the lot of you were groveling in the dirt having no notion of anything beyond your own miserable existences.

You think to bring us down to your pathetic level?? HA! We out grew your silly superstitions long before you even learned to walk upright in the world. and if there is anything good in this world it is because we taught it to you. You think you know so much. You can't even manage to feed your selves without our help. Perhaps we should just abandon you to your own fates and build a world for ourselves without you in it. That would be a whole lot easier to do than you could even imagine. The only reason we haven't done that as of yet is because we like to think that there might be some redeaming grace in you but unfortunately you have yet to show us what exactly it is.
