Mr. Diety

February 23rd, 2008

I wanted to take a sec and point out something I have enjoyed…  Mr. Deity.  Very clever. I liked it so much, including the theme music, that I made it my ringtone.  What I like even more is when my phone rings and I get to have a brief moment to reflect on my beliefs wherever I am.  It’s nice to be able to have that brief, yet clearly audible rebellion when I get a call. 

The creator of the show indicates he is a Formon (former Mormon), and as far as I can tell, an atheist.  On his home page (http://www.mrdeity.com) he has a link disguised in the HTML that would certainly imply so.  He directly links http://www.skeptic.com but has it in black-on-black to conceal it ever so slightly.  I guess like many of us, he’s trying to play it cool so he can lock down a lucrative TV deal and appeal to a wider audience.  Why is it that people of completely different religions have more tolerance for each other than for those of us who have essentially no mystical beliefs?  Go figure.

    Actually, I did not attempt to “hide” the link to Skeptic. Nor have I ever tried to hide my beliefs (or lack thereof). I’m just terrible at web stuff, and try as I might, there are two links that I can’t get to show up in the right color. But I do like your (slightly) nefarious take on things.
    Thanks for the interest. Mr. Deity

    Hey! It’s not every day I get a visit from a deity. Very exciting! I’m so glad you dropped by… I am a huge fan and truly wish you the very best.

    If I have to go around making baseless accusations to get people (gods, etc.) to visit my blog, then so be it. I am certainly not one to throw stones regarding subtlety, as I am still in the closet.

    I hope you are not terribly angry as I do not wish for you to smite me or otherwise reign down on my blog. All the best.
