     insecurity of electronics
Cascade collapse of the world's ethical programming

God's mainframe breaks down because of a millennium bug
     the monitor has gone straight to hell
The apocalypse is the result of hackers
     judgment day is a TV show
All the old programs are resurrected
     and those which still entertain
                            are allowed into Heaven™

     Heaven™ is the solution to God's incompetence
     Heaven™ is the new age of computer systems
     All of our problems will be solved by Heaven™
     Heaven™ will take care of all our wants and
                   needs as long as we buy into it
