Subject: Class 3 Miracle request

Please review attached report on ex-slave situation, northern African continent. The Class 1 and 2 miracles have had the desired effect. Permission was given to my chosen people to depart their condition of slavery and survey new territory. Once the journey was begun, however, the so-called god-king of Egypt (see my most recent Class 2 miracle request for a complete description) reversed his decision and has called out his military forces to pursue.

Currently, my chosen people are approaching a shallow sea. Crossing this body of water will be extremely difficult and cannot be completed before the Egyptian forces arrive. Therefore, permission to perform a Class 3 miracle is requested. Specifically, I wish to interfere with the flow of the body of water in question (see attached report for vector and mass analyses) in order to expedite the crossing for the above mentioned people.

I have already invested heavily in this people and feel that failure to perform this miracle would result in a loss of reputation throughout the region. In addition, these people have great long-term potential and a Class 3 miracle would silence the skeptics among them and allow for greater reverence (see addendum, "Future Potential of Monotheistic Ex-Slave Population", attached to enclosed report).

I hope that you can pass along my request with a positive recommendation. To date, I have done comparatively few miracles of Class 3 and above. I am convinced that a Class 3 miracle performed now will avoid the need for many more later.

Yours In Service,

Yahweh

I hope we are in agreement that the attached request is worthy of being passed along. Whereas you might recognize that you have granted Yahweh many Class 2 requests recently, I wish to remind you that fairly few Class 3 or higher miracle requests have been granted. Only recently has Yahweh's anger subsided after his Class 3 request to divert the comet that subsequently crashed into his planet and destroyed its dominant species was denied. This request is much more modest than that.

Incidentally, please pass my congratulations on to Andromeda for his recent success in getting permission for one of his underlings to stop a full-scale nuclear war. I'm sure Andromeda is very grateful that he was able to secure such a request. I can only hope that our relationship is equally good.

Yours in Service,

Milky

While I am aware that my cluster's Gross Adjusted Miracles is 4.5% above target quota, I believe that the individual merits of each case speak for themselves. Furthermore, some galaxies have been permitted more large miracles than others, and there have been complaints about this uneven distribution. Approving the attached request (and several soon to be forwarded) will lessen the imbalance.

Once again I apologize for going over quota, and please accept my assurance that I will tighten up in the near future in order to be below quota before the next review.

With this in mind, will you approve the above request?

Yours in Service,
