You just watched the 6 o'clock news. Now ask yourself, "When is God
going to throw in the towel?" God came close once before: The Flood
of Genesis. And John, in the last book of the Bible, wrote the
newscast for the Armageddon. So where do we stand right now?
Steve Simon doesn't presume to know. After all, he's an
agnostic. But he does choose to believe in God. However, he's
losing his faith in man. On the other hand, he hasn't lost his
sense of humor and he has a cat to guide him through the hard
times. Makes sense.
"The Rainbreaker" is a fable that attacks some tough moral
issues with a lot of good-natured fun. Lest you think that the
author is poking fun at God, rest assured. God always comes out on
top. It's "stupid human tricks" (such as the failure of nearly all
human institutions) that convince Steve Simon that God will not
destroy the world but simply replace humans with animals. Or
something like that. Adults who've enjoyed "Marley & Me" and
the satire of Amrose Bierce, P.J. O'Rourke, and Chris Buckley will
laugh out loud at this genre-bender with a message.
