The ivory gods,
And the ebony gods,
And the gods of diamond and jade,
Sit silently on their temple shelves
While the people
Are afraid.
Yet the ivory gods,
And the ebony gods,
And the gods of diamond-jade,
Are only silly puppet gods
That the people themselves
Have made.

Like my computer perhaps? #ahamoment
Ha! If that's what you choose to believe my friend......... hehehehe.
As someone said: "We cannot create the simplest form of life, but we make gods by the hundreds."
That's a good quote, Indigo. Never heard it before.
