I've just looked through these and just wanted to point a few things out. Not negative things.

But the Bible is proof our god is real.

The Bible is proof of nothing. It is text on paper. Try again please.

Why don't you make a reference to the recursive nature of the Bible? Point out the paradox of trying to prove what is said in the Bible by something else that's in the bible.

Or point out that the validity of the Church of Google can be proven the same way. If the Bible can prove the truth of the Bible, then why can't Google be used to prove the truth of Google? And if you type "church of google" into Google, guess what appears among the results?

Google has "spoken" and said that the COG is true, in the same way that God has "spoken" in the Bible to say the Bible is true.

Oh and;

Your all homosexuals!

It's possible that some Googlists are indeed gay. We are an accepting Church and view homosexuality as completely natural. Its a non-issue for us. We're about having fun and building knowledge, not spreading prejudice and hate.

Yeah, that should be "You're". But I'm a pedant so you can probably just tell me to shut the fuck up on that count.

Not trying to tell you how to do your job or anything. Just my input.

I'll be posting something along these lines tonight after work. I'll use your response as a template. Thanks for the input. :)

That should be pretty obvious dude. Can you go up to any random human and ask him/her instructions on how to assemble a computer, build a deck or even information on ANY historical event AND get a response in under one second.

Search through millions of webpages for a specific phrase and sort the results into chronological order omitting any which contain the word 'cheese' in less than a second. Yeah, just try and top THAT!
