[...] Almost as bad as that, now some people are thinking of reasons why you’re “better” than Me. [...]

Simon doesn’t wait until people are dead to let them know they’ve chosen the wrong, uh, career path.

Simon Cowell hasn’t written a new testament saying he isn’t the asshole he used to be.

Simon doesn’t go for the whole passive-aggressive thing. Simon tells you exactly how much he hates you.

-OR-

When Simon punishes you, you can still make money singing “She Bangs” on CD.

Simon Cowell isn’t really interested in you. He will not punish you for not worshipping him.

No-one has ever killed in the name of Simon Cowell.

When you hear awful renditions of bad songs, God won’t shut them up. Simon Cowell will, though.

One big difference is that Simon Cowell speaks his mind, whereas God does not.
Whether you consider that an advantage or disadvantage in either case is a matter for debate. I reckon priests might have a few problems if God suddenly started speaking his mind!

Nobody could ever claim “Simon Cowell is on my side”. And if it happened, Bob Dylan would certainly not pen a song about it.

(By the way, I’d had thought that children would have placed Mickey Mouse, or perhaps Spongebob Squarepants, before God).
