If god exists, she's a fan of DF.

Oh
God it's been a lovely day
Everything's been going my way
I had so much fun today
And I'm on fire

Interesting but quite silly thread. ;D
To the OP: this is not the first and not the last [I guess] donationware game. Its good to see that Toady can live from these donations, however some months were a disaster as I see, ~1500$ / month is not too much nowadays.
The last month was quite good thankfully.

No, God is a nebulous being if it exists. It allegedly created both man and woman in its image, hence God would be both and, thus, neither. Although it is likely motherly if it exists. Or drunk and disorderly, if you look back at the bulk of human history.

>.> Toady is obviously the Holy Father, while ThreeToe is the amalgamation of the Holy Ghost. Either that or he's a robot. Robots have a math sphere and an awesomeness sphere, you know.

I've always viewed Toady as the Creator, rather than a entity up for casual worship. But I read a lot of Terry Pratchett* so my views on religion** is a bit befuddled.

This thread is, however, somewhat creepy. I approve!

Quickly, form the First Church of the Twelfth Bay! We must use the power of Toady's awesome creation skills to punish the heathens with heavy leather bound books filled with nebulous prophecy and easy-to-misinterpret rules about how they should live their lives!

Real life is just some sumpreme being playing a rather advnaced version of dwarf fortress.

2012 = New version release so "god" has to create a new world.

Did you just make that?  Either way, awesome find/make.
Made me giggle.

But we're not the ones blowing it up, that'd be god deleting the save file after getting pissed off at Urist McPillock's antics one time to many.  ;)

I don't think God has a save of the planet, it'd be too easy to notice if he reloaded.
