Silly Yom Kippur musings

Given the current huge population on Earth (6.5 billion now?), and assuming that there are probably more religious followers (of any type, all religions across the board) than there have been on earth at any one time, I ask the following:

Is the large amount of people praying all at once the equivalent of a DDOS attack on God?

Gooood night everybody!

*gigglesnort* In that case, it's probably a good thing there are lots of religions. If everyone on the entire planet was praying at the same time...

God's server needs an upgrade. :-)

Oh, definitely! Also: imagine being tech support for God. Hee!

"My computer won't start!"
"Well, um...are you sure it's plugged in?"

"Okay, now I need you to use your oustretched arm and your strong right hand to press "control-alt-delete."

(Some liturgy just sounds weird to me when it's translated literally into English. *grin*)

Heh. But easily recogniseable if you're used to the same translations. Am giggling.

Have some faith, man. God is omni-scalable.
