Reminds me of an old FarSide comic with God pressing the "Smite" button as a piano falls on an unsuspecting subject. (Also, don't like the "Pregnant" button, and aren't "Extinction" & "Armageddon" synonymous?
I agree with the AIDS and 'Pregnant' button comments -- - - but I thought the 'Helium-sounding Voice' button, crossed out with DO NOT USE was hilarious!
I don't know if it makes the pregnancy button less offensive, but I believe it is a reference to the Incarnation rather than pregnancy being a punishment. But I'm curious about this jelly age...it'd be a good time for the peanut industry probably.

3 fingers because God is Trinity...
On The Simpsons, God is always portrayed as having four fingers, whereas humans have three.
I guess we lost the fourth one during the Fall.

Love the "smite" button. It belongs to Mary, Mother of God.
