Dear God,

My husband is an avid player of the video game Civilization III. He doesn’t pay attention to me any more. He’s always saying something to me like, “Just give me one more minute! I’ve almost vanquished the Greeks!”

He won’t even come to bed with me any more. He stays up half the night, and from the next room, I have to hear him muttering things like, “I can’t believe that the Aztecs just built the Pyramids. I almost had them done!”

So, God, I want to know who to blame. Did you design this Civilization video game, or was it Satan?

Odette,

You can blame it on me. The code for Civilization III is divinely inspired.

You’ve heard the Catholics talk about natural family planning? Well Civilization is information technology family planning.

Have you thought of taking on a technophobe lover?

- God
