If you check the posts on 'Politics, Economics, and Religion' sk8ycat, you'll find that you've misinterpreted what I meant. I should have made it plainer for an American to understand, there's some subtle differences of interpretation between American and UK English.
You hit the nail right on the head. That is, no being perfect in goodness would want to be worshiped. I tried to demonstrate this by developing a logical disproof of the Biblical god concept that defined the worshiping of something as at least acknowledging that it exists. (This was safe because the supposed Biblical god demands that his existence be acknowledged by everybody.) The Science and Rationalists' Association of India published it in its online magazine.
It might ring your bell because you are already on to the very significant idea that nothing perfect in goodness would want to be worshiped. Not even the argument that the supposed Biblical god wants to be worshiped so it can be a better father figure holds water. The disproof is short. It is at the address below if you would like to see it.
To answer your question of wed 'where is everybody' I thinkmmost of us are stranded at home. I'm iced /snowed in so bad l can't get in or out of the drive. Wish I was someplace where the weather would allow me to get out of the house. Hope you are well and mobile.
Elaine I was just thinking about you and wondering where you had gone. I was hoping you had a great Turkey day. I hope you got some really wonderful food.
I don't think he didn't get the "irreverence" bit, but since it's only the 2nd time I've suspended someone in the life of the comm, I'm not going to sweat it. :) And thanks for the add! :)

Goodbye M8! Miss your comments.
I couldn't believe it when I heard the sad news.
You were always a beautiful person, the kind of person it is sad to see go.
Hope the end was calm and painless. RIP M8!
Good bye, Felaine. I learnt from you, we shared what there was. Thanks for your kindness, wit and fun! I'll miss you.
Hi Felaine. I taught in Pomona--Ganesha H.S. some. Ontario had one the first malls in the area.

Happy to hear Pumpkin is back! What a relief.
At least you, Joan, and I knew that this person was a troll. I don't think you were the only one to report it, but it shows you're quick thinking. :)
I always love reading your answers to blog posts.
I had a feeling you were a pretty decent person.

Lol, ok.
I have amended the joke to include instructions by the vet to "say a prayer" while administring the "pungent" (gasoline) substance.
\There it has met all your requirements. Now all you need is to develop a sense of humor.
