Today 10:00am
Almost immediately after this meeting, The Root received an exclusive email from someone purporting to be God, responding to Carsons supplications. Because of his status as the unseen knower of all things, we could not confirm that the email was written by God himself, but our sources have independently verified the possibility of the messages authenticity by explaining: Well ... he does move in mysterious ways.
We decided to print the correspondence in full, without commentary:
My son,
It is with great pleasure that I hear from you. I know you think I had stopped responding to your prayers, but trust me, I have always been around. Its just that ... how should I put this? Its just that you call so much!
I know they say I never sleep or slumber, but sometimes Im just chilling, watching the game, or watching Biggie, Pac and Langston Hughes freestyle in a cipher (Langston really got into hip-hop after he moved here). Id rather you contact me with important things, not stuff like asking me to help you choose which kind of chicken to pick up on your way to the White House (original recipe, by the way; Trumps dentures cant handle the extra crispy).
Anyway, I wanted to talk to you about your prayer this morning.
Look bruh, you know I dont mess with Donald Trump like that. I dont even kick it with conservatives that much. Theres like ... three whole Republicans up here: Martin Luther King Jr., Frederick Douglass and guy who invented Lawrys Seasoned Salt (on the recommendation of the cafeteria staff).
