LIFE, MONEY ARE GOD'S

In Tony Snow's column (Oct. 10) there is a report of a bumper sticker displayed by a Republican staffer, which is a verbal shotgun blast at whoever. It declares, ``It's my money, stupid, and my life. Get out of it!''

I wonder if God replied to that person would he say, ``It's not your money, my son. The silver and the gold are mine, and so is your life in me. I have not given up on you.''

And God, being the very fount of love and compassion, would not add, ``Are you listening, stupid?''
