An error of a different sort, but equally silly, is in the post's title, a false and ironic appeal to a deity whom the writer does not believe to exist.  It is rather surreal, actually; was it not Salvador Dali' who said, "Thank God I am an atheist"?

Religious language, not ironically used this time, turned up on that sign held by a friend of Al Gore who was urging him to run for president: "We want you!  Save us, Uncle Al!"  That is reminiscent of what the poor people of Buenos Aires would cry out to Eva Peron in "Evita," mutatis mutandis: "!Santa Santa Evita, Madre de todos los pobres, de los tiranizados, de los descamisados, de los trabajadores de la Argentina!"

And indeed, to trace out one possible thread into the future, Al Gore's inauguration speech, in January, 2009, might very well begin, "Don't cry for me, Estados Unidos.  The truth is, I never left you ... "

Chickens deserve our true friendship! So do fish! So do other sentient beings! Let us learn to be kind.
