A Dialogue with God

 

Questioner (asking God):       So, what about your wayward children, the humans who have gone so wrong?

 

God (slowly nodding sagely): Yes…it was an experiment that has not been such a great success…

 

Questioner:                                Then, what will you do about them?

What future lies ahead?

 

God:                                            Why I need not do anything! They will simply destroy themselves…

 

[Professor Anderson got a good chuckle out of this one page-play a few years ago when I first read it out to him. In fact, I lost or discarded it after that and had to resurrect it from memory on December 26th, 2013 as it seems so relevant in retrospect – CS]
