Richard astutely asked Robert why Robert's god is always depicted as an old man even though he/she/it is supposed to be everlasting.
Yes, I know it's nonsense but try telling a confirmed Christian that or, if you have plenty of breath to waste - a Catholic. The Catch 22 logic is nuts. The Catholic god consists of 3 entities - Father, Son and Holy Ghost - that are all the same person but none will confess to who came first, The Father, I guess because of the name adopts the look of an old guy and the Son, who supposedly is still the Father had to get born again later but still goes about looking like a 33 year old man. The Holy Ghost for some never explained reason goes about looking like a dove. A dove! You'd think with all the powers in his/her/its arsenal an eagle or a pterodactyl might be a bit more becoming - kind of like Gwaihir in The Lord of the Rings.
Ridley Scott at least had a go at depicting God as a boy:
I think I'll stick to The Lord of the Rings and TinTin books.

I don't think Robert will be commenting on this.
