“God In Your Own Image”

Ricky Gervais is playing God in a TV pilot entitled “AfterLife” about an atheist who dies and goes to Heaven. Gervais says that he is playing God as “an arrogant, wisecracking, S.O.B…”
Gervais is an extremely talented comedian, having created “Extras” and one of my all-time favs…”The Office.” But his militant atheism and hatred for God and people of faith is rapidly destroying his career…not to mention what it must be doing to his soul.
His stand-up specials are dominated by ridicule of Christians or any type of theistic ideology. One of his films, “The Invention of Lying” revolved around the “lie” that Christians buy in to, that there is a God and an afterlife.
I find it interesting how he describes the way in which he is playing God. When we reject the truth of the Living God, we usually create a new god in our own image.
