Does God Return Calls? And Does He Own Perpetual Rights to Your Call?

HAVEN'T WE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR THIS? Isn't this just what we'd expect in the era of instant gratification and in-your-face manners? Obviously skilled in the ways of marketing, Dutch artist Johan van der Dong has set up a Netherlands telephone number where you can leave messages for God. van der Dong told Reuters that he set up the line "to give people an opportunity to take pause and contemplate life. Like praying, leaving a voicemail message is a way to organize your thoughts," he said. "It's a perfect combination for some contemplation." Now's your chance to pour out your soul, cry for salvation, repent, or just demand an explanation of why you can't have babies, your body is decaying, and/ or how you're supposed to retire now that your 401K is down the toilet? Or maybe just ask: um, do you own the rights to my private calls in perpetuity?
