I'd go with "Hey, it's God. I actually AM real, but I'm heading out. You guys are on your own from now on, no more afterlife or anything. So be good to each other! Alright, I'm out. (oh, and just some advice? you might want to get ahead of this climate change thing)"

Sounds like a recipe to stir up religious backlash on insert group here for driving god away

Yeah, I was hoping the wording of my message would make people give up religious malarkey, but you're probably right. Even being told "don't use religion to be a jerk" wouldn't stop people from doing it.

This would cause a global epidemic of suicides and unrest. When billions of people lose their faith, the don't take it very lightly.

Yeaaaah, it's not a perfect plan...

EDIT: Not to mention, I'd be a little worried about what all those "without the Bible, there's nothing to stop atheists from raping and murdering everyone!" people would do.

Also, if I died and found out religion WAS correct and there was a god, wheeeew doggies I'll bet I'd be in trouble.
