    If God had a name what would it be?
    And would you call it to his face?
    If you were faced with him
    In all his glory
    What would you ask if you had just one question?

    *And yeah, yeah, God is great
    Yeah, yeah, God is good
    Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah

    What if God was one of us?
    Just a slob like one of us
    Just a stranger on the bus
    Trying to make his way home

    If God had a face what would it look like?
    And would you want to see
    If seeing meant that
    you would have to believe
    in things like heaven and in Jesus and the saints
    and all the prophets (*)

    Trying to make his way home
    Back up to heaven all alone
    Nobody calling on the phone
    'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome(*)

    Just trying to make his way home
    Like a holy rolling stone
    Back up to heaven all alone
    Just trying to make his way home
    Nobody calling on the phone
    'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome

    I think Joan Osborne asked the same question.

    Seriously though, I don't think anyone would believe him if he fessed up to being god.

    edited to add: dammit Bumble Bee!

    He/She would be, more compassionate, more loving, more forgiving, than the God of the Bible.

    He is according to John 1:14 and 1 Timothy 2:5.

    Edited to John 1:14 instead of 1:1. Granddaughter has returned and is bugging me as usual.

    if he was ordinary like us would he even fess up to being God though?

    Or if he showed all his glory would he need to?

    and man said "let us create God in our own image"...

    That's my favorite theory. We are all god, conciousness, spirits, having material experiences.

    Beats eternal nothingness or evolving from an amoeba to me.
