SPIRITUAL TERRITORIALITY
All
the major religions of the world claim God as their own, but they all can’t
have Him. God would be spread too thinly. Practically speaking, He would have to
allocate portions of Himself to the various religions, based on the size of the
religion, i.e. the number of adherents, the number of churches, mosques,
temples, their wealth, and how many places around the world the religion is practiced.
The
religions, meanwhile, would be elbowing each other, prodding, shoving, if not
outright fighting for more God-territory. Some would attempt to bribe God, or blackmail
Him.
God
could, of course, rotate the portions of Himself so that, over time, everyone
would possess the same amount of Him. He
would create a schedule, taking into consideration the religious holidays of
each which were certain to overlap.
Meanwhile,
this religion would need to celebrate in the morning, that one in the
afternoon, leaving the evening for those that remained, so everyone would have time
for prayers.
God
could settle it all, naturally, by simply declaring that He did not exist.
