A Bum Steer, or What?

Would a god be seen to float,
When alighting from a boat, or yacht?
Is god a guy who'd see a need,
To sacrifice a child who he'd begot?
Would he revel in our praises,
And speak in mystic phrases, a lot?
Would he really seek to burn us
Within a fiery furnace, or not?
Would he have us build a church,
Leaving people in the lurch, forgot?
If you asked for help of any type,
Would he run and be there like a shot?
When he went to save the dying
Did he stroll there sadly crying, or trot?
Did he get up on a cross and groan?
Would he sit upon a throne, or squat?
Would he talk about the kinds of sin,
And get the truth all tangled in a knot?
Ought the word of god be plain?
Should we have to read and strain, and swot?
Must truth be made unclear,
And covered by a smudge or smear, or blot?
