Thus the questions own proviso that it assumes that it does exist and that there is a God, irregardless of the answer's own opinion of the subject.

In many ways it is, but these questions are asked of every actor that has been on Inside the Actors Studio, as hosted by James Lipton, and as seen here in the US on the Bravo Network.
Here are some examples:
*Robert Redford
*Clint Eastwood
*Dave Chappelle

Suprisingly George Carlin stated that his favorite curse word was "Mother****er", and to God's statement question he, as a noted athiest, would like to hear "Now we're going to have some fun around here."

Don't you just hate that "word"? It's almost as annoying as "for all intensive purposes".

Or "I could care less"

If you could care less than this is pretty important!

The phrase is "I could not care less"!

I don't think I have ever heard anyone say "for all intensive purposes".

Has anyone else heard anyone say these exact words? "I heart that movie"?

It drives me nuts! Heart is not a verb. It is a graphic on stupid bumper stickers! There is a lady at work who "hearts" things she likes.

We get it here quite a bit. I've actually seen it written that way.
Fools! It's "for all intents and purposes". "Intensive purposes" does not make any sense!

I've heard the phrase used, but not often. Doesn't make it any less painful, though......

For all its' virtues, Texas is plagued with grammatical abominations, and I am not referring to "ain't" and "y'all". By my estimation, roughly half the populace is incapable of using apostrophes correctly. Another third show serious deficiencies in non-phonetic spelling. Even amongst the functionally literate, malapropisms are common.

Why don't we have a grammar-nazi sticky thread?

Speaking of TX and grammar...
On a side note, if you want to hear something REALLY funny, you gotta hear someone from Texas speak Russian. The southern/Texas accent carries over. (no I'm not making Neal)
