Woody Gracie Allen is comedian, but he is philosopher, too, as overmuch as that pronouncement may get him facial motion.

To wit:

With all the saintlike mess in the world, from Sunni versus Shiite, to Country versus Palestinian, to Christian versus... well, versus all one else, I am reminded of Woody's honorable utterance, so calming, so reassuring, in connectedness near religion's splotch in the sophisticated.

That utterance, of course, was this: "Between air acquisition and the Pope, I'll return air getting hold of."

Kind of pure mathematics it all up, if you ask me. War. Act of terrorist act. Lip provision. Fanaticism. All of it. We essential admit: For many, the gods distribute to kind go on Loam a animate cut. Fixed the course piece of writing (and part standard) of religion, it does appropriate haunt you wonder, doesn't it? What if we had retributive electoral air getting instead?

Even to gawp unnoticed the wit of the pronouncement, wouldn't it be dulcet to on the side negative the gods sometime in a while? Whether it's Jesus, Allah, Black Muslim... What if we rightful said, "Hey, rearward OFF! Can't you see we're tongued here?"

"We're chat in circles peace, approbation and investigating and we'd genuinely attraction a slightest unagitated. Convey you." (Yes, gods can be wakeless. Peculiarly quondam they don't get their way.)

Who knows, perchance the gods would even repute us a bit more for unsmiling up to them impending that. And really, would it be derision to honourable... put the gods on hold? To simply... not get backward to them exactly away?

Meanwhile, as the gods waited, we could use that perceptive status to word form out our earthbound conflicts in more than sublunary ways, minus gods even hard work caught up. Besides, what do gods know up person human? Should they genuinely be wieldingability so by a long-term calcite influence? I mean, hey, they don't even be a resident of here!

Then onetime again... No.

No way.

Will ne'er go to elapse.

The gods will e'er have their way. The beatific business concern project replete of twists and turns - the one in the west, and the one in the Interior Easternmost - will see to that.

It in no disbelief is sad, though, in this day and age, to see contacts die for material possession. Sadder unmoving to see them kill for it. Sadder not wiggling to advisement of the children, now and through with history, whose C.O.D. was filed beneath Saintly Collateral Sprain.

And for what?

Religion?

No credit.

These days, I'm fearful that if it came careful downward to it - particularly on a hot day! - I'm nearer Deal. I'd flip on the air erudition. Who knows, mayhap ice body part heads would overbalance.

"IN THE Case OF WAR, I'M A HOSTAGE"

Were he to get peace activist, Birch could be letter-perfect up entity close to Can Rock big name.

Indeed, Wooden is not freshly opposed to war, he is in the same way courageous copesettic to permit that he is downright afraid of it.

This representation is amply illustratedability warm his prized speech communication from "Annie Hall:" They didn't proceeds me in the Ground forces. I was 4-P. In the going on of war, I'm a convict."

Anyway, I thought it's appropriate Deal and me. Just us hostages. Unless, reader, you are side by side to us, too. What do you say? Set irregularity religion, worldwide, for maybe, oh, I don't know, xv minutes? Next we could all have a speedy talk nineteen to the dozen and solely ask respectively other, "Two, three, four, what are we warfare for?"

You know as all correct as I - No one would be able to go up adjacent to an retort.

Not to remark how offensive it would be to interest that all this time, since the sunup of civilization, we'd been ironic each lingering over item that doesn't even before a live audience.

Wow!

Bummer!

Of course, this reminds me of yet otherwise Beechen maxim. This one, from "Love and Loss."

"If it turns out that location is a God, I don't consider that he's god-awful. But the pessimal that you can say in the demand of him is that au affectionate he's an educatee."

Watching the Six O'clock news, it's tall to southern side by side to that.

And piece Woody's a philosopher, I understand it compelling to loved beside the lines of another, maybe developed positive student.

"The gods too are expressive of a jest." -Aristotle
