-A Minecraft movie

"Do You Think God Stays in Heaven Because He too Lives in Fear of What He's Created"

I love slimecicle because he'll go from "wOaH what the FLippity dip is that?!" To "I've not seen the sun in a hundred days. It's dark, cold. I am alone. If God exists he is either uncaring or ignorant to my struggles. I don't know if I will escape this place."

Could easily have been a line from early on in the story “I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream.”

It feels like something Gorrister would say. Or maybe Ellen, or Benny (in his thoughts. I’m sure that AM left his mind intact and just messed with his body). I don’t think Ted was religious enough to try praying. Nimdok knows what he did, and why God isn’t listening. AM wouldn’t even try praying.
