Yesterday Boo wrote an email to God.
Let me backtrack a little. We are what some would say Godless people. MPS was raised a Catholic and I only found out a couple of months ago (during my Lent post) that I am Church of England. Now we would be called agnostic. Or fence sitters. Or too shit scared to say anyone is wrong just in case someone is right and I don’t get my 47 virgins and swim in chocolate when I leave this world going WTF?
So my kids don’t go to Church.
But they have Religious Education at school. RE for short. Once a fortnight a chick comes into the classroom and does activities with the kids and talks about the Bible. Is the bible supposed to be The Bible, like Him or not? Shit, I am such a heathen…
So Boo has been taking these classes and except with the one hiccup about Jesus and the whole resurrection (Resurrection? Shit.) thing only applying to Jesus and NOT his guinea pig or random deceased bugs, it has been all good.
Until yesterday.
When I got to school his teacher showed me something he handed her.
Dear God,
Do you have local news there even? If so, do you do it?
Your man,
Boo *school name* *our last name*
And insisted that the teacher email it to God. Immediately. Like, right now even.
This is loosely based on something he has been obsessing about watching his Homestar Runner DVD’s.
Apparently he insisted loudly and vehemently that the teacher SHOULD have God’s email address.
‘Oh, what is the URL?’ he finally said with a note of irritation in his voice, ‘I will do it’

Classic! Tell Boo God is super uber the www and relies on advanced technology… called prayer
Bwahaha..that boy is too cute! Shouldn’t his emails to god just go straight to you?
That is magic – God’s URL! I love it. Hey, maybe you could find her on Twitter, Santa is there as is Darth Vader …
Don’t visit me! Though, diggin’ the blog. Just had to comment after seeing your Plurk!!!
hee hee . . . your Plurks crack me up
Oh he is such a sweetie….life must never be boring with boo around.
boo has the direct line to the geek squad leader in the sky?
awesome.
Hee hee hee! I can just picture his irritation at his teacher. I’m sure it was accompanied by one of those “adults are such morons” looks!
ha ha – I just tried to find it, but I remember someone once posted a link to a great site where you could post letters to god – it was not religious (like so many) but with the sort of queries that you do want god to ponder.
Of course I couldn’t find it – may have to ask god, not google!
And that is why we all love Boo so much.
In this house, we are crazy freaking obsessed with Strong Bad. We have hoodies and bumper stickers and all of it.
Teen Girl Squad!
This is so cool, Kellie! Good for Boo. I’m glad he brings smiles to your heart.
Direct uplink straight from your head to his. No need for URL’s
why isnt there a site for god? santa has one where you can see his travels…hmmmm
LOL – Boo is priceless -when you get it please email me too.
Awesome!
Wendy: Oh you should see him pray! It is the most innocent gorgeous thing I have EVER seen. His teacher said she cried the first time she saw him. I think she likes my boy
Leigh: Nah, I am a Goddess. There is a difference. I don’t take requests.
Matthew: Santa is on Twitter? Why hasn’t he friended me. This makes me sad.
LaskiGal: I am totally coming over now. Especially since you told me you are finally using spacing and paragraphs! I lurve you for that! No spacing and paragraphs make me feel all queasy and overwhelmed.
Genaine: Oh God no. He is hilarious!
The planet of Janet: Nah, but I am sure he will soon. Being so freaking awesome and all.
Latte Mommy: Boo thinks everyone is a moron. Built in his mothers image (well I don’t think you are, or anyone reading this of course!)
Jeanie: A bit like Postsecret I expect.
Veronica: The world would be a boring place without my Boo.
Mr Lady: ‘Im in love with every boy!’ I have the tshirt. Boo is WEARING RIGHT NOW the ‘Your head asplode’ one and has The Cheat soft toy at his feet. And we have all the DVD’s, figurines yada yada yada. We lovez us some Homestar Runner and merchandise!
Coast Rat: Thanks, yeah he is a constant source of blog fodder!
Bettina: Fair point.
Joyce: Yeah, he really needs to get hip with the happenin’ thang.
Trish: It is a deal… don’t hold your breath.
Lauren: *snort* yeah!

hehehe love it!
Tell Boo God’s Blue Tooth is down at the moment as Her Telstra shares in Bigpond paid such a piddly dividend this quarter and She’s trialling dial up accounts with other ISP’s for awhile…in the meantime, snail-mail prayer is the only way to reach Her
Firstly you told me you were gonna post all girly today. Lying bitch.
If he’s interested, I’m following God on twitter.
That’s great! Someone needs to start up http://www.god.com and no, I haven’t checked to see if someone has been that demented.
This may not offer a concrete URL…
but it does address the issue (get it – address??) in some manner.
http://ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Send-an-E-mail-to-God&id=77706
Or this one – whilst not offering a URL, it atleast has a SEND button.
http://www.kingdomwayonline.org/KWO/GodsEMail/default.asp
Or this one suggests
god@godserv.com
http://www.godserv.com/email_for_god.html
Just beware the tithing…
A little less reverent…

Mkay. I would comment here, but I don’t want God to be angry with me. Oh…crap…
Ha! That is amazing and hilarious!
And I’m pretty sure that God’s URL is: http://www.anthropologie.com because all the stuff there is fit for a god, and you’d have to be one to afford it.
God doesn’t need a URL – he’s a mind reader.
Ha! I love the religion stuff with literal, logical minds (http://miscthing.blogspot.com/2006/12/believing.html). Don’t tell me he is real and exists, but then tell me I have no way to get an important message to him or see him even? Not cool.
I’m pretty sure his url is http://www.postsecret.com…I think?
Heathen or no, that was funny.
Could you please ask him where God lives? I think he knows.
lol.
Before reading the comments, I typed in http://www.god.com/ It’s a real place. lol.
Boo rocks !!!!
Classic. I wonder what God’s local news would be like. “It’s gonna rain tomorrow, but then you already knew that.”
God doesn’t have an email address because he/she doesn’t want to be overwhelmed with a gazillion emails per day. Imagine all the requests he’d get.(S)He’d have no time for overseeing the rest of us…….
What’s your URL?…cos bloglines still doesn’t know!
Too cute of Boo….my kids come out with some crazy religion questions, that I am just unable to answer…I’m a heathen too, and a Church of England one at that!
K
(Can’t believe I have to actually VISIT your blog to read it….your doing it on purpose right?)
AH HA !
So it’s not just me screwed on bloglines.
Sort out your feed woman! Ping on feedburner
God had to shut down his email. All that Nigerian spam triggered smotings.
Boo is awesome. I really love that.
That is classic!! I think Santa has email you would think that God would too. I think Boo is on to something.
Dude, when you find his/her URL, please forward it as I have a few questions of my own that I need to know. Like right now.
Boo is one bright bulb. What a cutie!
Ha! Looks like you have raised one self sufficient one, way to go!
I am in love with your son.
PS. Who’s my commenter of the day two posts back? Seriously, don’t cut yourself.
When are you sending Boo to my house? I need a dose of Boo a day.
Wow – email? I hope he’s not Nigerian
Awww, that seriously made me smile.
Boo is the bomb, Kel.
