“For years, I’d wanted God to work his magic on me and transform my spirit—a kind of self-obliteration in itself—and when that didn’t work, I had wanted him to stop time and hit reverse. He’s the Almighty, after all, so why couldn’t he? I wanted him to go to the point in the world’s timeline just before my father’s sperm met my mother’s egg and use his holy finger to block the fertilization.”
