A Heavenly Housing Crunch

Gawd the Almighty Mufwic does not want his disciples ascending to the Pearly Gates too easily

A recent Most Supreme Judicial and Most Potent Court of All Realms ruling in the class action suit brought against Gawd last millennium has not pleased any of the parties to the suit.

The charges, well known to most Heavenly Brethren, were Deceptive Conduct.

To wit:

In his infinite wisdom, The Grand Mufwic designed humans to be easy prey to sin. By the Gentlemen’s Agreement of Universal Concordance Date 4309875.78, the Old Thunderer was forced to admit this Design Defect, and had to modify his Original Intentions.

In the Gentlemen’s Agreement, Gawd stipulated that he had in fact deliberately set up what is now called a Catch-22. By designing humans to be highly sexual, and yet at the same time treating matters of sexuality as sin, the Product (that’s how the GA refers to humans) finds itself between a Rock and a Hard Place.

It was therefor agreed and ordered that although the Product would not be directly informed of the Rule Change, the Rules would in fact be modified. The net result is that it now takes a hell of a lot more sinning to be denied access to the Promised Land.
