Would you re-elect God?

Here, I used American English (large number of cartoon references).

Senator Dole, famous for his "morality", made TV commercials for the drug Viagra as it first came on the U.S. market.Viagra is taken for impotence problems (erection problems, and the word "erection" is close to the word "election" (such specific wordplay has a technical name)).

Priapus is the Greek God of fertility and somewhat synonymous for "erection", which President Clinton became famous for, thanks to Federal Special Prosecutor Ken Starr (an anti-porn crusader who did more to promote porn than Larry Flint ever did). I posted a couple lines of a Latin poem with the God speaking, and then coincidently that forum was moved to "Adults Only Section" here on WP, so.... A popular Feminist joke is that "men think with their balls" instead of their "brain", so by majority rule, "the balls" always win.

"Popeye the Sailor", a cartoon character famous for strength from eating spinach, had a frequent cartoon girlfriend named "Olive Oyl". Presidential Candidate Senator McCain had many facial expressions and actions similar to "Popeye the Sailor", and the voice for "Olive Oyl" was from the same person that provided the voice for "Betty Boop", a famous cartoon character, that was often considered "racy" and originated as a cartoon dog character before "becoming" a "human character". All three cartoon characters also ran for U.S. President in cartoons.

Many people complained that Vice-Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin "hijacked" the persona of "Betty Boop". Sarah Palin was also with a controversial church with controversial practices. A major rumor was that she "handled poisonous snakes" to verify her faith in God as often taken as cited in Mark (16:17-18?) and engaged in other very "non-canonical" religious practices. Combine this with Christine O'Donnell's ad "I'm Not A Witch" for references to Cauldrons, which all 3 cartoon characters had dire encounters with such.

The word "tied" has two useful meanings here, both as "the same level of support" and "restrained" (as in "my hands are tied"), and so on....

Lighten up, man.

Are you being serious? This isn't religion-bashing. This is a light-hearted joke. An amphibian has a thicker skin than you if you are offended by this.

I take my religion, serious I do not like any form of joke about God, who I believe in and it depends on what amphibian, you are calling me some of them have tough skin

Joke time!

Heaven and Hell are separated by a brick wall. Over the eons it's gotten a bit disheveled, bricks missing, in need of repair.

God shouts over to Satan "This wall needs fixing! Your souls and my souls shouldn't be able to see each other."

Satan responds "So fix it yourself, leave me alone."

This angers God and he shouts back "If you don't at least split the work with me I will sue you!"

Satan, with a smirk, responds "Oh yeah? And where are YOU going to find a lawyer?"

I am a God. The book "God Against The Gods: The History of the War Between Monotheism and Polytheism" by Jonathan Kirsch (2005), well documents the dangers of extremist monotheisms. Some of the other Gods I have met have very godly senses of humour. As a manifestation of Puck with my Becker's Nevus, I very well know what fools those mere mortals tend to be, so I laugh the Gods' humour off. Now with Cain being humourous when I asked him where his brother was, and he returned the question asking if he was his brother's keeper, only Satan, Hitler and a few others thought his responses were funny. I didn't take the killing of one of my distinct creations as humourous, as also in the pre-ordained Commandment. Adding "electrocution" and "shooting" to the "joke" potentials of offense might get more giggles from Hitler, would-be Hitlers, and such as Satan's Bunch (and maybe even with your inadvertent support), to Justice, it is something to be weighed with the aspects of the intent of as in any singular possible resulting murder.

P.S.: The moniker "Joker" being selectively serious about "religion-bashing" as something of being a "Joker"?

My nickname is joker because the joker is my favorite dc comic book character

Your god allows the death of puppies. So no.

Aww why so blue panda bear

Some people regard Hitler as a god, and not just Satan.

I know their called sheep following a failed Idea and Ideology completely hopeless

You most assuredly can. The transition from absolute monarchy to constitutional monarchy invariably results in the election of a head of government who was previously appointed at the pleasure of the monarch.

My problem here, though, is that if you subject the Almighty's power to an electoral mandate, you have ipso facto contradicted the Almighty's omnipotence. I'm not sure that I want to elect a Supreme Being who is going to have to spend the next few millenia on the campaign trail rather than getting on with the important work of being King of the Universe.

Pagans have elected their Idols as their God even the Greeks had statues of the Greek mythology Gods like Zeus Pluto ect

If there's going to be an election, vote for the God of True Mercy!
I will:
Extend Doctor Who for a skillion seasons
Make Tina Fey immortal
Evaporate Jack Kirby
Renovate Hell into infinite celestial water park
Incorporate dinosaurs into heaven
Provide every ensouled being with a $500 tax rebate OR another being to eat OR water and sunlight OR chemicals pumped out of underwater vents in the ocean floor
AND
Get rid of periods. Who needs 'em?
