Dear God, your inbox is bursting

Rachel Wells
April 20, 2008

EVER wondered what it would be like to peek inside God's inbox? Well, now you can.
About a week ago, Bill Tikos, the Sydney-based founder of trend-spotting site thecoolhunter.net, launched dear-god.net - a website where people across the globe can post their prayers to "Jesus, Allah, Buddha, or simply a spiritual universal energy".
The prayers that land in God's inbox range from issues of depression, grief and abortion to politics, homosexuality and faith.
Then there are the humorous ones, including this entry: "Dear God, could you send me a new boyfriend, please? The last one was rubbish, frankly, and could have benefited from a rethink of his sideburns … Please have him washed and brought to my tent."
In its first week more than 63,000 people visited the site and hundreds commented on people's prayers.
Dear-god.net is the latest in a string of websites (including godtube.com) and technologies - such as podcasts of sermons you can download to your iPod and daily verses sent by SMS — enabling young people to connect with God in the same way they might communicate with their mates.
